A word from the director

" The Angers campus is clearly part of a dynamic partnership and regional initiative serving students and businesses. The campus is currently undergoing a period of transformation and change for the Industry of the Future: the construction of a 2,000 m² testing and characterization hall dedicated to fatigue durability, which, in partnership with IRT Jules Verne, will be a technological platform with national reach. We have also forged strategic relationships with ENSIM (National School of Military Infrastructure Engineers), the University of Angers IUT, CEA Tech, IRT Jules Verne, and others," said Amandine Duffoux, Director of the Angers campus.

Evolutives Learning Factories on campus

Our industries are facing real challenges related to digital, energy, environmental, and societal transitions and need talented individuals who can support them. To meet this need, the school has launched an ambitious program to adapt its campuses and programs. The Evolutive Learning Factories program aims to transform our campuses into Industry 4.0 factory schools, full-scale demonstration facilities offering a unique environment for experimentation for students and companies. This initiative is part of a broader strategy of continuously adapting our programs to the needs of businesses and society, drawing in particular on the high-level engineering research teams deployed in our institution by our teacher-researchers.
