Presentation

Course co-accredited by the National Polytechnic Institute of Grenoble and Université Grenoble Alpes

The master in Mechanics is structured around four programs: Simulation and instrumentation in mechanics (SIM), Mechanical engineering (GM), Environmental fluid mechanics (EFM) and Fluid mechanics and energetics (FME), Turbulence, Methods & Applications (TMA).

The second year of the SIM and GM programs involve work-linked training in a company or research laboratory. Teaching is given in French.

The EFM and FME programs welcome international students. Teaching is given in English.

The TMA program is open to an international public and is taught in French and English.

The two programs SIM and GM, consist of:

  • A foundation program (over the 2 years) of 30 ECTS
  • Specialised classes for each program (60 ECTS)
  • Work-linked training through an internship (30 ECTS)

The 1st year Applied mechanics is entirely common to the two specialisations Civil engineering and Mechanics and leads to three international programs, including EFM and FME and also the TMA programme.

The EFM and FME programs consist of a foundation program of 45 ECTS, specialised classes for each program (45 ECTS), and an internship (30 ECTS).

The objectives of the master in Mechanics are :

  • SIM program: The aim of this program is to train managers with a very high level of expertise in simulation and instrumentation applied to fluid and solid mechanics, who will be responsible for research and development in major groups and SMEs in various sectors such as aviation, automotive, rail, environment etc
  • GM program: The main purpose of this program is to train managers with scientific, technical and professional knowledge in the fields of mechanical engineering, especially in the design and production of mechanical systems. The professions targeted by this program are managers responsible for developing and making industrial products (numerical simulation, R&D, production, design, quality management, project management etc) in major groups and SMEs in the engineering industry, in various sectors such as aviation, automotive, nuclear, agri-food and plastics processing
  • TMA program: The objective is to offer an original training on a complex and essential scientific theme. The pedagogical approach is innovative in that it first refocuses teaching on the scientific discipline, in this case turbulence. Straddling three majors (Physics, Mathematics and Applications, Mechanics), the TMA course focuses on all methods of analysis of turbulence with a unique interdisciplinary vision: fluid mechanics, mathematics, internal and external geophysics, physics, astrophysics and chemistry. Specialisation will be achieved at the end of the course through a choice of application modules and a 5-month M2 internship in a research laboratory or R&D research centre. Students who choose this course will want to become experts in fluid mechanics and turbulence before moving on to an application in a specific field.
  • EFM program: The aim of this program is to give students scientific and technical skills in environmental fluid mechanics (lakes, rivers, ocean, atmosphere etc) from theoretical, numerical and experimental perspectives. The content of each course ranges from fundamental aspects through to applications. This research program offers two main career opportunities :  doctoral studies in environmental fluid mechanics, either in France or abroad, with a view to pursuing a career as teacher-researcher in a university, researcher in a large public organisation (CNRS/INRA, CEA etc), or R&D engineer within a company in the water or environmental engineering sectors
  • FME program: On completion of this program, students should have acquired scientific and technical skills in fluid mechanics and transfers (thermal, chemical) from theoretical, numerical and experimental perspectives. This program is mainly intended for students wishing to prepare for doctoral studies in fluid mechanics and transfers (thermal, chemical), either in France or abroad, with a view to pursuing a career as teacher-researcher in a university, researcher in a large public organisation (CNRS, CEA etc), or R&D engineer within a company in sectors such as energy or transport

Internationally-oriented programmes

Program

Select a program

Applied Mechanics 1st year

The 1st international year, 'Applied Mechanics', totally common to both programms of Civil Engineering and Mechanics and which opens on three international courses, including GCER for the second year.

 

This Master Course gives you the opportunity to apply to the UGA Graduate School and one of its 15 thematic programs. The Graduate School@UGA is a new training program through and for research which was launched in 2021 within the Université Grenoble Alpes, and which concerns all the schools and components of the UGA.

The objective of these thematic programs is to offer interested students an interdisciplinary training program and academic excellence combining university studies and laboratory internships. Each thematic program develops a specific line of research, allowing then to embark on a PhD, or to have a direct professional insertion.

The program regroups students registered in different mentions, master programs or engineer school tracks and working together in specific courses.

Participation in the Graduate School@UGA is for two years (M1 and M2) and may open the possibility of obtaining an academic scholarship for two years for the best international students (non-French baccalaureate holders).
