Objectives

• Educational and scientific

EFFIGENIE's expertise aims to bring you to a level of expertise that will enable you to make informed decisions on issues relating to the design and management of energy systems in the context of the ecological transition applied to industry. 

Thanks to this expertise, engineering students will be able to propose solutions that reduce energy consumption and minimize environmental impact for both industry (from SMEs to multinationals) and housing. They will acquire skills in understanding, designing, and implementing solutions that address multi-domain and coupled energy challenges (electrical, thermal, and fluid mechanics). 

The L2EP (Laboratory of Electrical Engineering and Power Electronics) and LMFL (Laboratory of Fluid Mechanics) in Lille naturally joined forces to contribute their complementary expertise, which is essential for mastering this type of complex issue.

While primarily geared toward industry, this program also offers the opportunity to pursue a doctoral degree.

Objectives

In 2017, polymers and composites were the most widely processed materials (by volume) in the world (300 million tons/year). Composites now account for the majority (by weight) of materials used in aircraft such as the Airbus A350 XWB. In the European Union, the plastics sector employs around 1.5 million people, 90% of whom work in production.

The objective of this unit of expertise is therefore to train generalist engineers specializing in the life cycle of polymers and composites, and in particular in the design and manufacture of parts.

Objectives

• Educational and scientific

In the current context, where various economic and regional stakeholders are taking environmental issues into account, EcoBS expertise provides future engineers with the tools they need to understand, identify, analyze, evaluate, and reduce the environmental impacts of activities related to the creation of value in goods and services. 
Life cycle engineering methodologies make it possible to take into account all of a product's environmental impacts throughout its life cycle.
This approach can be implemented throughout all phases of product/service development and marketing using eco-innovation, life cycle analysis, eco-design tools, and circular economy and functional economy concepts.
In line with the current trend toward dematerialization, the concept of a product also refers to a service.
 

• Professionals and career opportunities

Be able to integrate tools into a company and its design process that enable the sustainable application of eco-design and eco-innovation approaches.

Leading this eco-design initiative: integration into the process, but also implementation of assessment tools and product and service innovation.

Program

• Module 1 - Current situation

Overview of environmental issues and resources in our modern societies. Interactions between the economy, the environment, and society. Consequences and prospects for economic actors in product development models. 

• Module 2 - Environmental Assessment of Products and Services
