Presentation

Further information

This course is also interesting for students with a general engineering degree (e.g. central schools) and wishing to acquire a complementary skill in optimization. It also hosts students from the first year of master's in Computer science and Mathematics and applications and students in the last year of Grenoble National Polytechnical Institute or Polytech'. The latter undertake this program in place of their last year.

Practica, projects, and missions

A mandatory practicum or research project of 5 to 7 months is carried out in the second semester. It can be done in a research laboratory but also in the R&D department of a company. In this case, a teacher-training researcher ensures the quality of the research training provided. This research project allows good immersion in the world of research, the discovery of the research profession, and preliminary contacts for a possible thesis or employment in an R&D department.

Registration and scholarships

Access condition

The second year master's is accessible to candidates according to their transcripts (and/or interview) :

• Having validated the first year of a compatible course - or by validating studies or acquired experience according to the conditions determined by the university or the training

Public continuing education : You are in charge of continuing education :

• if you resume your studies after 2 years of interruption of studies
• or if you followed a formation under the regime formation continues one of the 2 preceding years
• or if you are an employee, job seeker, self-employed

If you do not have the diploma required to integrate the training, you can undertake a validation of personal and professional achievements (VAPP)

Candidature / Application
