Summary

This master program is offered within Grenoble Institute of Technology (Grenoble INP) Phelma.

Additionally, it can be followed partly within the framework of international masters in partnership with other European universities. These master programs have dedicated admission procedures:

- Master FAMEAIS (Functional Advanced Materials Engineering with Artificial Intelligence for Sustainability)
- Master AMIS (Advanced Materials for Innovation and Sustainability

This course, entirely in English, has a specific registration fee of 5000 € / year.

Objectives

This master program aims at educating researchers for industry and academia in all sectors of materials engineering (structural and functional materials). In the framework of the Engineering school Phelma of Grenoble Institute of Technology, it delivers a high-level curriculum on the fundamentals of materials science and on applied materials engineering. The two second-year programs offer specialization respectively in the area of microelectronics and microsystems, in relation with the very active industrial sector in this area in Grenoble, and in the area of materials for nuclear engineering, in relation with the largest French industrial actors.

The master diploma can lead to a career in industry or to continuation with a PhD. Many PhD opportunities are offered in the many labs of the Grenoble area.
