SPECIALIZED MASTER'S DEGREE® IN IRVE - PROJECT MANAGER IN CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE, ELECTRIC AND AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES

Created in 2010, it is offered jointly by three engineering schools: Arts et Métiers, École Nationale Supérieure des Techniques Avancées, and Mines ParisTech. It has received support from EDF and professional automotive groups.

The program was ranked No. 4 in the Mobility and Transportation category of the EDUNIVERSAL ranking of the best Master's, MS, and MBA programs for 2024.

PROGRAM

Educational objectives

The educational objectives cover the following three areas:

1. Information domain: necessary change in human behavior, but also use of new IT tools to provide virtual autonomy that compensates for the real loss caused by the use of electrical energy storage (less efficient than fossil fuels).
2. Field related to electrical systems. The objective is to provide knowledge of the technological solutions currently available to perform the various electrical functions that optimally ensure the storage and management of energy flows within hybrid or pure electric vehicles.
3. This area of work concerns the impact of this change on traditional automotive professions. The objective is to review the methods used to design and dimension vehicle architecture in the fields of mechanics, materials, acoustics, and mechatronics.
