MASTER OF ENGINEERING "APPLIED MICRO AND NANOTECHNOLOGIES"

Option : Wireless communication

Option : MEMS and NEMS Technologies

The programme aims to train engineers with a high technical added value in the field of micro- and nano- technologies applied to wireless communications, electronic circuits, optoelectronic, photonic MEMS, BioMems, sensors etc.

The first year consists of a common core of courses focusing on fundamental scientific and technical aspects and tools. The second year consists of specialised courses in one of the two options (Wireless communications, Micro- and Nano- Systems).

The applied hands-on nature of the second year will provide students with qualifications very sought-after in both the current industrial environment, and in academic research. Entrepreneurship and innovation issues, as well French culture and language are also considered. Further to this master, students may undertake a PhD, or begin an engineering career.
