The Paris campus is transforming its teaching spaces into workshops working together on the theme of sustainable health.
 

Featured project: the prosthetic foot

Prostheses, orthoses, and exoskeletons fall, by definition, within the regulatory scope of medical devices when their purpose is to compensate for a disability. These devices are subject to so many constraints (weight, bulk, reliability, safety, noise, temperature, impact, etc.) that their development requires constantly challenging the state of the art in technology.
This gave rise to the idea of creating a case study in which, over the course of a semester, students work on designing a prosthetic foot for children, from software design to the testing room, including 3D printing of prototypes.

On the rest of the campus

The campus ELF project is based on the observation that it is possible to bring together the five laboratories on campus around a single theme: sustainable health.

The Lille 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: the cobotized assembly line

Cobotics, the science that focuses on collaboration between humans and robots, is being showcased at the school's factory on the Lille campus! Thanks to a project to improve the robotic assembly area of its technology hall, within the physical and digital systems engineering laboratory (LISPEN), the school has acquired several mobile robotic platforms and robotic arms.

The goal: to have animmersive, safe, and welcoming place foreducational experimentation.  This open space has been designed to be reconfigurable and to allow for the crossover between different themes (foundry, machining, industrial management, robotics, etc.). Students' independent access to resources has been enhanced and continues to be developed, enabling them to better grasp topics related to production organization and support functions.

Operational since 2023, the facility also serves as a showcase for the laboratory and the institution. An investment of €144k in robotics for reuse will complete the facility in 2026.

On the rest of the campus

The Lille campus is developing a realistic and eco-responsible industrial ecosystem throughout the product life cycle. This environment will be used to design and implement innovations in key applications (energy transition, light mobility, health, etc.). Several acquisition projects have been completed or are underway to equip the school with Industry 4.0 processes, such as a 5-axis machining center, 3D printers, and characterization machines.
