Master of Science (MoS) Master of Science Knowledge Integration in Mechanical Production – Advanced Production Systems (KIMP – APS) 

Campus

Arts et Métiers in Lille

Program description

This program consists of one semester of courses taught in English and held on the Lille campus, and one semester dedicated to completing the Master of Science . This Master of Science involves full-time work in a laboratory or at a company, either in France or abroad.

The first semester is divided into two quarters, one quarter of core courses (shared with all KIMP tracks) and one quarter of specialized courses.

  • Fall Semester: Courses.
  • Spring Semester: Master of Science .

Core courses:

  • Methods and models for the integration of both product and manufacturing process parameters
  • Tools for integration Example on the generation of Machining process by using AI approaches (expert system, Constraint Satisfaction Problem, Fuzzy Logic, AHP)
  • Modeling and control of mechatronic devices
  • Manufacturing process management
  • Literature Review
  • French language and culture (Foreign language for French speakers)

Specialized Courses:

  • Modeling and Analysis of Dynamic Mechanical Systems
  • Control of Dynamic Systems
  • Advanced Mechatronics
  • Robotics
  • Team Building and Management

We use RoboDK for offline simulation and programming of industrial robots.

Objectives

Design and integrate agile (flexible and rapid) production systems for modern and competitive manufacturing industries.

Learning outcomes

Identifying and formalizing knowledge based on a scientific approach to modeling and designing advanced production systems. The KIMP-APS program provides training for further PhD studies, research activities, or positions in industry as an expert with international experience gained by working in an international and multicultural context.
