Adèle Goualou, a graduate Arts et Métiers, chose to pursue a dual degree program at ESFF (École supérieure de Fonderie et de Forge).
With honors in her science baccalaureate, Adèle had no preconceived ideas about her career path. In 2010, she enrolled in a preparatory class to give herself the widest possible range of choices. She passed theArts et Métiers entrance examArts et Métiers chose the Metz campus for its French-German partnershipThere she discovers a concrete opening into the industry.
In her first year, she took a course in foundry work and carried out practical projects that convinced her to pursue this industrial field. As part of her second-year project, she assessed the range of employment opportunities in France and abroad. For her,"it's clear!"she wants to continue in foundry work.
While searching for specialized training programs in this field at Arts et Métiers, she discoveredESFF in 2013.
During her internship at Saint Gobain Pont à Mousson, she spoke with numerous executives and engineers who reinforced her decision to continue at ESFF. She therefore decided to apply for a program at ESFF to obtain a double degree.
Today, she is discovering industrial fields with a great deal of cutting-edge science and technology: "The processes are complex and varied."
If she had to give advice to students to encourage them to pursue a career in foundry and forging, she would talk about the modern and innovative nature of the industry she has discovered. In her opinion, the field is not well known and there are many activities involving processes that require mastery of calculation and simulation tools.
