3A expertise: IRIS program - Robotics Engineering and Systems Intelligence

General engineer, student program, orprofessional training contract, third-year expertise in Robotics Engineering and Systems Intelligence.

Campus

Arts et Métiers Campus Arts et Métiers Lille

Objectives

Improving competitiveness requires European industry to evolve towards production agility. In this context of transition towards the industry of the future, the development of new technological means and associated knowledge is expected. The objective of this training is to train executives capable of:

Define industrial production tool requirements
Develop new engineering concepts based on a multidisciplinary approach
Designing and controlling innovative mechatronic/robotic systems for industrial, medical, or societal applications

SPECIFICITY – 2 possible courses of study – PROFESSIONAL TRAINING CONTRACT and STUDENT status

This training can be carried out:

in the form of a 12-month professional training contract. During this period, the learner is therefore employed by a company (at a minimum of 80% of the minimum wage) and alternates between periods at the School and in the company (on average, 2 days in the company + 3 days at school per week in S9, then full-time in the company in S10).
