Specialty – Urban Engineering, Mobility and Transportation (AMT)
The ambition entertained by student-engineers registered for the UTC Urban engineering, Mobility and Transportation ( AMT) specialty course, is to respond to the challenges of urban projects, mobility and transport, at the different scales of development (district, city, territory), integrating the notions of planning, technical management, control of use and sustainable development.
Teaching contents
In addition to general urban engineering courses (modelling, urban technical systems, digital tools and project management), the GU-AMT urban engineering student will consolidate scientific, technical, legal and societal knowledge and skills through
- Urban policies and urban planning rules, regulations and law;
- Urban projects ;
- Urban transport systems;
- Mobility and transportation.
The pedagogical team
The AMT speciality course is particularly open to the professional world, both through its teaching team, which includes a dozen professionals who are invited as to participate in the course as guest lecturers and who contribute case studies based on their professional practices. This is notably the case for courses in transport, urban planning law (ARVAL urbanisme), urban projects (A Et Cetera, Atelier 123, Attitudes urbaines, Nexity) and landscaping (Phytorestore).
Equipment
- Software specific to the training: CAD (Illustrator), CAD (AutoCAD), geographic information system (ArcGIS/ QGIs), statistical software ®, SQL language (SpatiaLite), specific software (ModAccess), etc.
- Demonstrative experimental devices: Urb'Act serious game using the TATIN tables developed at the Digital Hall of the UTC Daniel Thomas Innovation Centre; Observatory of transport and mobility.
Placements/internships and industrial relations
GU-AMT students arr required to carry out a 24-week internship (6 months) for their final project. This internship, which is a real professional experience, contributes to the integration of future graduates into the working world. The student-engineers benefit from a network of professional and institutional partners in the transportation sector (ARTELIA Ville et transport, EGIS conseil, INGEROP, STRATEC, etc.), in project management and urban development assistance (Alto Step Ingénierie, AREP, ARVAL urbanisme, Attitudes urbaines, Filigrane Programmation, Franck Boutté consultant, Rouen Normandie Aménagement, ZEFCO, etc.), in urban planning agencies and in local authorities.
International
The Urban Engineering department (UTC-GU) is involved in four double degrees with the Ecole de Technologie Supérieure de Montréal, Polytechnique Montréal in Canada and the Braunschweig University of Technology (TUBr) in Germany. Student-engineers are encouraged to go on exchange for a semester of study at a university in Europe (Belgium, Germany, Italy, Lithuania, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, etc.), in America (Brazil, Canada, Chile, Mexico, United States, Rhode Island, etc.) or in Asia (China, South Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, etc.)They also have the possibility to do one of their internship periods abroad.
Professional openings
The majority of urban engineers who have completed the AMT programme are responsible for the technical management and implementation of projects. The young engineers work as project managers, then as project managers in project management, project management assistance, urban planning, architectural and urban programming, transport and mobility consultancies, etc.
Nearly half of the student engineers are hired at the end of their internship period and 90% find a job within a month.
Examples of jobs: design manager, design engineer, project engineer, etc.
