Specialized engineer in power engineering
If you’re interested in this course, you’re undoubtedly aware of the importance of energy issues for our planet and its inhabitants. Innovation is particularly dynamic in this sector, and IMT Nord Europe is preparing you for it with this bac + 5 diploma in energy engineering, accredited by the CTI and available through continuing education or apprenticeship.
A source of jobs
Engineers have a major role to play in the production, transport, management and use of energy. Their skills must be technical, scientific and managerial. All in a necessarily multidisciplinary context. The booming profession of energy efficiency engineer, for example, aims to reduce energy consumption and develop renewable energies in buildings.
Practical training
The apprenticeship alternates between IMT Nord Europe and the host company. On the one hand, you will be supervised by a tutor, a teacher from the school, who ensures a permanent, formalized relationship with the apprentice and the apprenticeship master. The latter, an experienced company executive, will organize and monitor your work. The content of the assignments and the skills assessment agreed between you and the company are validated by IMT Nord Europe.
Academic training
The energy engineering curriculum provides you with all the scientific, technical and cross-disciplinary skills you need. At the same time, immersion in the company enables you to put all this knowledge into practice, so that you’ll be up and running in no time:
- master the scientific and technical tools of the engineer;
- manage complex corporate projects
- work in an interdisciplinary, international and intercultural context;
- master energy and thermal calculation methods;
- design and implement energy efficiency solutions;
- design and operate energy production and transmission facilities;
- manage energy in a context of sustainable development.
The curriculum
The course covers the full range of knowledge and skills needed to become an energy engineer. A total of 1,800 hours are planned:
- 1,178 hours dedicated to the general engineering curriculum
– scientific foundation
– engineering sciences
– industrial organization
– project management
– human sciences
– interculturality and modern languages - 622 hours devoted to the specificities of this field of study
– fundamental energy sciences
– modeling and management of energy systems
– implementation of energy sources
– energy management and sustainable development
