StudyQA — Master: Mechanics

Contents Requirements Funding

1st year Master’s: Coupled Systems Mechanics

The Mechanics Master’s degree program aims to provide students with high-level scientific and technical literacy focused on current industrial challenges in the field of mechanics. This dual literacy enables students to work towards careers in engineering, research or higher education teaching, in keeping with their professional goals. Semesters S1 and S2 of the 1st year Master’s are intentionally non-specialized, giving students freedom in their choices for S3 and S4.

Classes in the 1st year Master’s are organized into coherent teaching units that help students acquire skills for organizing and managing works associated with high-level scientific and technical business activities in the field of mechanics.

The first semester comprises shared program modules – a common core covering the theoretical disciplines and fundamental knowledge required for all tracks. Students then begin to narrow their focus in S2, according to their choices. Their focus helps them to choose their tracks for S3 and S4. It is important to keep in mind, however, that each S1-S2 route provides access to several tracks (see the figure on the previous page), including some tracks that are not in the Mechanics Master’s program.

2nd year of Master’s: Modeling and Simulation in Structures and Coupled Systems Mechanics

The Modeling and Simulation in Structures and Coupled Systems Mechanics 2nd year Master’s is a research-based training program, both practical and theoretical, teaching students about advanced techniques in Modeling and Simulation of Structures and Complex Systems Mechanics.

For foreign national applicants (outside of the European Union and European Economic Area (EEA), Switzerland, Monaco or Andorra):

Consult the consular authorities concurrently to find out the procedures for obtaining your student visa. Depending on which country you are from, some authorities may ask you to use the CampusFrance facility.

The CampusFrance procedure must be followed concurrently with submission of your application to your choice of study program on the Université Paris-Saclay platform: https://apply-tc.ecp.fr/

International mobility grant (IdEx Paris-Saclay)

The IdEx Paris-Saclay project, of which CentraleSupélec is a partner, aims to promote international openness to master’s-level training programs provided by partner institutions, and to facilitate access for high-level international students wishing to develop a research training project up to doctoral level.

As such, for each university academic year, a one-year grant will be granted (for candidates accepted into the 2nd year of a Master’s degree), which can be renewed (for candidates admitted into the 1st year of a Master’s degree subject to obtaining successful results), to international students, to fund their completion of a Master’s degree with CentraleSupélec.

Applicants must first submit an application online (Application section). The person in charge of the training selects, from among the admitted, candidates to whom he will propose to apply for this scholarship. Each selected candidate will then be informed by e-mail so that they can complete their application for the scholarship; He must in particular provide the email address of two referrers who must complete their recommendations online before the deadline specified in website of University Paris-Saclay.

Ile-de-France Master’s degree grant

International applicants for a Master’s degree may be eligible for financial support from the Ile-de-France Regional Council.

This support is for foreign national students arriving for the first time, aged 30 and under in the year of selection, and wishing to complete a Master’s degree in whichever field of studies they have chosen.

All nationalities are eligible. However, priority will be given to candidates from priority decentralized cooperation areas of the region, or developing countries, particularly in Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe, the Middle East or new European Union member states.

Candidates must first file an application online, specifying in the grant section that they would like to apply for the Ile-de-France grant.
