Overview

  • Master

  • Degree awarded : Master

Summary

This Master's program is meant to train professional experts in Sustainable Industrial Engineering, able to deploy skills in a global industrial environment and face the future challenges of the transitions (ecological, digital, societal).

Industry is of critical importance for the modern societies. Industrial engineering, as a branch of engineering, focuses on designing efficient production systems. It is affected by the deep transformations and instabilities the human societies are facing today.

Through this program we aim to provide students with tools to contribute to a more sustainable industry with a strong emphasis on handling of complexity of human centric organizations.

Sustainable Industrial Engineering addresses the issue of industrial sustainability using different points of view. The overarching presence of data requires new skills to handle them. Complexity of socio-technical environment is also a big challenge that requires to understand the multi-dimensional character of the industrial organizations in order to solve the problems raised by the industrial transformation.

Sustainable Industrial Engineering has myriads of application fields since it encompasses the whole value chain and lifecycle of products: from the development of new and innovative products and services, to the end of life of the systems.

The SIE Master also welcomes students from all over the world and includes some excellence programs that propose scholarships for high potential students willing to engage in a research-oriented path leading to a PhD.

The application has to be done on the corresponding websites:

SUMA EUropean Master Program (SUMA: SUstainable MAterials)

 

In second year, you have the choice between 2 majors. One of them is Sustainable Product Development: 


The industry today faces major challenges related to the strong environmental impact of human activities. Among these major challenges, the industry must define services with a low carbon footprint while guaranteeing the well-being of people. The sustainable development of industrial products course studies the key areas that will give students the tools to face these challenges and provide a systemic and interdisciplinary understanding of the situation. The main topics are sustainable design, data analysis, innovation, advanced manufacturing, socio-economic aspects of sustainability for Industry 4.0.

The Sustainable Product Development major offers students the opportunity to specialize in research if he then wish to pursue a doctorate. Students also have the possibility of choosing an "industrial" path if they wish to apply directly in industry after a master's degree.

Our teachings are at the cutting edge of knowledge and involve teachers from our affiliated research laboratories, such as G-SCOP for industrial engineering (both supply chain and product development), CERAG for management, PACTE for sociology and GAEL for industrial economics.
 

Master Thesis


In the second semester of the 2nd year of the Master SIE, each student will be expected to complete an internship either in an industrial firm, in France or abroad. This internship will be an opportunity to consolidate and discover working methods and to learn how to manage real projects. A written dissertation will be required at the end of the training period and it will have to be defended before an examinations board.
 

Objectives


Becoming:

 
  • Project engineer
  • Development or research engineer
  • Business or consulting specialized in environmental issues
  • Production and supply chain manager
  • Consultant in Sustainable industrial engineering  
 

School environment:

 
Most courses will be provided at Génie Industriel, the Industrial Engineering school of the Grenoble INP group. The school is centrally located in downtown Grenoble. It benefits of a very international environment among the student and of a very modern and high level set of technological platforms.

Student life in Grenoble is very rich and dynamic. Students have the opportunity to engage in external activities such as sports (leading region for mountain sports), arts, non-profit organizations, international relations, or other activities.

Registration Fees 2023/2024

 
  • Students from outside the EU: 5000 €/ year (National fees 3770 € + Specific fees 1230 €) + 95 € "Student and campus life contribution"
  • European students: 1473 €/year (National fees 243 € + Specific fees 1230 €) + 95 € "Student and campus life contribution"

To be taken into account! The cost of living for a student in France is about 900€ per month.

The institution applies the rules incurring the payment of differentiated fees by non-E.U students.
The full amount of the owed registration fees is not necessarily to be paid at the start of the academic year: an instalment plan of payment may be scheduled.
In addition, the admitted students will receive information about the various scholarships available to Grenoble INP-UGA students.
Finally, if the personal situation justifies it, a partial or total exemption may be decided upon, on request, by the Student Social Commission. The Commission's decision is based on a social evaluation and an examination of the financial resources of the student and her/his family.
Exemption from registration fees cannot be guaranteed, as the number of exempted students is limited by national regulations.
