Headline

A website providing access to the documentary resources offered by theArts et Métiers libraries Arts et Métiers been launched. It gives greater visibility to the activities of these facilities, which are located on the eightArts et Métiers campuses Arts et Métiers at one institute.

Main body text

This website provides practical information about each of the nine Arts et Métiers libraries: opening hours, facilities, number of seats, etc.

In addition, libraries offer a wide variety of events: conferences, workshops, exhibitions, treasure hunts, training cafés, knowledge cafés, serious games, etc. There is always something going on, and the website further promotes these initiatives.

Libraries also produce regular technology and science watch newsletters. These can all be consulted in one place and by everyone.

Finally, we find above all what constitutes the DNA of a document portal, i.e., all the resources available to different audiences (internal or external).

This website is therefore a working and information tool as well as a showcase for the activities of the Arts et Métiers libraries Arts et Métiers the outside world.

Teaching methods

Lectures, tutorials, project-based learning

Numerous contributions from recognized professionals in their field

3 specific modules in the expertise:

  • Environmental impacts of emerging industries and technologies
  • Metrology and energy management
  • Environmental processes

Benefits of the training

The training aims to provide participants with specific knowledge on major environmental issues, energy consumption, supply chains, and materials for the environment.

This training program enables participants to acquire skills related to optimal energy use, environmental improvement of industrial processes, and pollution control processes.

The training is provided by teaching staff and research professors from Arts et Métiers the University of Bordeaux, as well as largely by industrialists and experts in the field.

The courses and projects are backed by the expertise of the Institute of Engineering and Mechanics (I2M) in Bordeaux and, more broadly, in collaboration with laboratories on the Bordeaux university campus.

Career opportunities

The positions are Production Manager, Operations Manager, R&D Engineer, Research Engineer, with engineering positions in

- Engineering firms specializing in: Construction (thermal engineering or the implementation and monitoring of high environmental quality (HQE) construction projects), Renewable Energy (solar, thermodynamics, wood energy, methanization and biogas, wind power, river or marine hydroelectric power), thermal-energy or hydraulic engineering related to industrial and environmental thermal engineering,

- public service companies for waste management, water, energy, and environmental services,

- in industries related to renewable and alternative energy production, or manufacturing in the food and textile sectors, as well as industries related to natural raw materials (leather, wood, paper, petroleum, coal products), hydrocarbon processing (plastic and rubber products), non-metallic minerals, and primary metal processing.

The areas covered are:

Energy sectors, specifically renewable energies, but also professions related to buildings, energy, and construction.
