Mecha­tro­nics can be defi­ned as a dis­ci­pline that brings toge­ther mecha­ni­cal engi­nee­ring, elec­tro­nics and IT. The SMT master's degree equips stu­dents to become ful­ly ope­ra­tio­nal pro­fes­sio­nals in this mul­ti­dis­ci­pli­na­ry field of engi­nee­ring exper­tise, in par­ti­cu­lar in the desi­gn, control and cha­rac­te­ri­za­tion of com­plex mecha­tro­nic sys­tems, from micro­sys­tems to com­plete vehicles. The course com­bines ele­ments of clas­si­cal mecha­ni­cal engi­nee­ring, elec­tro­nics and com­pu­ter science, and there is a mar­ked focus on sys­tems. In today's world, stu­dents the­re­fore gra­duate from the course with a high recruit­ment poten­tial. The course is aimed at mecha­tro­ni­cians (rein­for­cing their know­ledge base and skills) and at mecha­ni­cal engi­neers see­king to broa­den their pro­fes­sio­nal hori­zons with regard to mecha­tro­nics. The French govern­ment awards a ‘Labo­ra­to­ry of Excel­lence’ (Labex) qua­li­ty label to a small num­ber of research ins­ti­tu­tions of par­ti­cu­lar merit, and the awar­ding of this label also depends on the qua­li­ty of the tea­ching dis­pen­sed. This master’s degree is an inte­gral part of UTC’s Labex rela­ting to sys­tems of systems.

Pedagogy

The SMT master's degree includes modules that are desi­gned to deve­lop the spe­ci­fic skills that mecha­tro­nic engi­nee­ring com­pa­nies say they need now and will need in future. Key areas are :

• minia­tu­ri­za­tion of mecha­tro­nic systems,
• mecha­tro­nic sys­tems powe­red by on-board sources,
• inno­va­tive com­pact actua­tors and sensors,
• sys­tems engi­nee­ring and integration,
• mul­ti­phy­sics model­ling and opti­mal sys­tem design,
• controls for mecha­tro­nic systems.

Professional objectives

Confer­ring scien­ti­fic and tech­no­lo­gi­cal know­ledge and skills of the highest level, equip­ping gra­duates for the desi­gn and model­ling of inno­va­tive sys­tems of sys­tems (SoS), using a mul­ti­dis­ci­pli­na­ry approach.

Stu­dents who suc­cess­ful­ly com­plete this SMT master's degree may choose to pur­sue a PhD, or to apply for pro­fes­sio­nal posi­tions in public or pri­vate research acti­vi­ties, in deve­lop­ment and inno­va­tion as research scien­tists, pro­ject mana­gers, sys­tems and for­mal metho­do­lo­gy experts, etc.
