Master International

ISAT and Polytech’Orléans, top European automotive engineering schools offer a co-accredited Master programme in Automotive Engineering for Sustainable Mobility focusing on Energy Management & Control and Vehicle Dynamics. This international programme in Europe is accredited by the French Ministry of Research and Education.

Objectives

This master level two-year automotive engineering programme (3 semesters & 1 internship semester) is entirely taught in English in both European engineering scools: ISAT Nevers & Polytech’Orléans.
This programme aims at preparing future automotive engineers for a professional career with a broad knowledge in automotive systems adapted to the new trends (hybrid propulsion, electrical vehicle, bio-materials, alternative fuels, fleet management…) while offering specialisations central to the industry & research to meet these requirements.

Course description

Core teaching units with a choice of two specialised options:

Vehicle dynamics / Intelligent vehicle

Energy management & control for sustainable mobility

Environment

ISAT

ISAT is located near the French Nevers/Magny-Cours F1 circuit (3-hr drive from Paris) and offers a perfect setting for the student/future automotive engineer to work on innovative projects with the motorsport SMEs & major automotive manufacturing companies, consulting organisations as well as suppliers. Additionally, career opportunities also exist in academic research or in automotive engineering education thanks to a close network of research centres and public/private research laboratories.

Polytech’Orléeans

Polytech’Orléans (1.5-hr drive from Paris) is an engineering school providing an extensive range of courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels in the areas of engineering and technology. Polytech’Orléans is thoroughly involved in automotive research topics such as new engine concepts, energy management, aerodynamics in partnership with leading car manufacturers and suppliers.

Students at practical training sessions

During semester 1 and 2 most of the AESM courses include practical work on state of the art industrial and research equipment. The following videos where the AESM students explain their work have been taken during the Engine Control course:

Control lab – Synthesis of a throttle control

Engine test lab – Diesel engine NOx/particles tradeoff

Engine test lab – Optimization of spark timing and AFR
