A technological showcase

mediastiAM is a powerful collaborative tool for training engineers in the 21st-century industry by combining  four ingredients that are inseparable from current economic development: training, research, innovation, and entrepreneurship.

mediastiAM provides a technological showcase open to the city, encouraging young talent to join Arts et Métiers.

A team from the LISPEN laboratory and the Dynéo training factory will deploy their platforms there. Teachers, researchers, and doctoral students will set up their offices there.

mediastiAM is thus contributing to the promotion of a new facet of the Aix region's identity, that of science, technology, the Arts et Métiers brand Arts et Métiers all the campus partners.

2,000 square meters dedicated to learning how to learn, innovating, and entrepreneurship

mediastiAM has a digital learning space tailored to the needs of the student population (750 students) and the implementation of new teaching practices.

It consists of a 500 m² learning center divided into different workspaces (lounge area, brain bubbles equipped with screens), documentary resources, group workspaces, all digitally connected and adapted to the needs of new generations of learners.

Innovation and new teaching practices will be facilitated by the creation of three classrooms equipped with reconfigurable furniture and individual or shared workspaces, allowing external partners to be welcomed.

A cafeteria and exhibition space will contribute to the conviviality of the complex and complement this architectural design, opening up a new relaxation area.
