International Master Sustainable Manufacturing and Advanced Technologies
Download as PDF
Objectives
The master Sustainable Manufacturing and Advanced Technologies prepares future industry executives, researchers and teacher-researchers by offering them unique technical and scientific expertise. They acquire a solid grounding in the domain of materials and advanced manufacturing processes enabling them to meet future technological and environmental challenges for a sustainable environment
This master's program aims to:
- To provide the graduates with strong basis in materials and advanced manufacturing processes
- To develop a practical know-how on a wide range of manufacturing processes and characterization techniques
- To train a new generation of graduates and future industrial managers that are capable to embrace future technological and environmental challenges towards a sustainable environment
- To develop international and intercultural skills;
- To train the graduates in collaborative work and project management
- To propose key specialization in sustainable manufacturing and, for some students, insights into digital, smart and clean manufacturing at a partner university.
Program
The course is divided into four semesters taught by Centrale Lyon at its Saint-Etienne campus and Mines Saint-Etienne.
First year
The first year of the Master is structured in two complementary semesters. Students are introduced to the fundamental concepts of advanced manufacturing at Centrale Lyon then acquire core knowledge in materials science at Mines Saint-Étienne.
Courses in the first semester are held at Centrale Lyon on the Saint-Étienne campus.
Core Modules
- Materials
- Computer Science
Specialised Modules
- Metal Machining Processes
- Additive Manufacturing
- Physical Measurements
- Cross-disciplinary Project in Advanced Manufacturing
Elective Modules
- Production Engineering
- High-Temperature Processes
Complementary Modules
- Research Methods
- Foreign Language
Courses in the second semester are held at Mines Saint-Étienne.
- Materials Science II
- Mechanics of Materials
- Materials Characterisation
- Computer Science II
- General Education
Second year
In the second year, students follow a specific ‘Sustainable Manufacturing’ course run by École Centrale Lyon and Mines Saint-Etienne, before completing their course with a 5-month work placement.
Scientific Modules
- Modelling of Material Removal and Wear
- Modelling of Thermomechanical Processes and Surface Integrity
- Surface Repair and Functionalisation
- Materials Durability
- Materials and Processes
- Industry 4.0 / Materials Characterisation III
Complementary Modules
- Preparatory Research Project
- Responsible Engineering
- Foreign Language
Some students who have completed the first year may be eligible, upon application, to undertake an academic exchange at a partner institution.
Students must complete a 5-month work placement in industry or in one of the partner research laboratories.
Diploma and certification
This course awards a national master's degree - controlled by the State.
