Master's Degree in Engineering, Paper science, print media & biomaterials - Apprenticeship

Summary

A professionalizing approach

You are supported at each stage of the development of your projects (training, professional ...).

An active and collaborative educational system helps you develop your knowledge, skills and teamwork. It introduces you to project management and, more generally, teaches you how to learn. Human, economic and business sciences - essential for any engineer - are taught from the 1^st year.

Technological platforms allow you to benefit from practical training on industrial pilots (paper machines, printing presses, cutting table, thermopress, extruder, sleeping bench, 3D printers), on scientific equipment (environmental electron microscope, rheometers) and on simulators.
