Mechanics of Materials and Structures for Civil Engineering and Transportation Systems

Overview

This year, 7 out of 11 classes will be taught in English, willing to reach 100% of classes in English within a two-year period. Classes are taught in French during the first year (M1), willing to fully teach in English within a four-year period.

In addition, it offers a solid experience in the development of numerical methods (e.g. for multi-scale problems and the simulation of multi-physics problems)

Skills

Skills in mechanical modeling to address issues of R & D and Research, in numerical methods in mechanics (including the use of simulation tools). Skills in recent methods of analysis and numerical simulation techniques for the study of reliability of mechanical systems made up of simple and complex structures, whose dimensions range from a few micrometers (microsystems) to meters (structures of the mechanical industry, transport, civil engineering, etc.).

Career

Students of Mechanics of Materials and Structures for Civil Engineering and Transportation Systems at Uni Eiffel will work in Research (or R & D) related to Mechanics in major national and international research organizations (such as CEA and EDF), in university laboratories, companies (engineering and / or consulting). 

The fields of application are : mechanics industries, civil Engineering constructions; transport industries (automotive, aerospace, space, naval, rail); industrial materials products design (metal, composite, etc.); production and transformation of energy (petrochemical, gas, electricity); etc. 

The types of jobs associated are: project manager; R & D engineer. The further of studies concerns the preparation of a PhD in mechanics (opening to the careers of CNRS researcher and university professor)
