The Evolutive Learning Factories program Evolutive Learning Factories to transform our campuses into Industry 4.0 training factories. Find out how it is being rolled out on the Bordeaux campus.
The Bordeaux campus is transforming its educational platforms to meet the challenges of the industry of the future and train the people who will drive its transformation.
Featured project: PrintBO
Located in the heart of the technology halls, the Bordeaux Fablab has been enhanced with several 3D printers thanks to the ELF program. The aim of the space is to enable students to prototype and repair their own parts, both for educational projects and, on an ad hoc basis, for personal projects.
With a budget of over €10,000, financed by the ELF and investments from continuing education, five new machines were added.

On the rest of the campus
The Bordeaux-Talence campus stands out for its approach, which covers the entire product life cycle: design, manufacturing, use, and end of life. The ELF program aligns teaching, research, and industrial transfer while leveraging existing platforms.
Students play a central role: ELF representatives are selected from among second-year students in Grande Ecole Engineering Programme PGE) and actively participate in implementing projects and organizing campus activities. Each fall, an ELF event highlights local initiatives and serves as a special opportunity to showcase achievements, strengthen the collective spirit, and secure new funding.
Led locally by Stéphane Chevalier, Fabian Magnin, and Frédéric Lalardie, ELF correspondents, this project is developing thanks to the joint involvement of students, teachers, and staff, thereby strengthening the campus's position in Bordeaux's academic and industrial ecosystem.
