Présentation
The Smart Mechanics degree is an EIPHI graduate school master focusing on research and innovation in the field of Smart Structures for mechanics. Smart Structures are innovative solutions for applications as vibroacoustic control (NVH), Structural Heath Monitoring, Shape Control, or Energy Harvesting for instance. Different strategies can be developed to add such new functionalities to structures as the design of complex architected technological solutions, the integration of smart materials with specific behaviors, or the development of embedded active devices with electronic circuits.

Objectifs
The master ‘degree offers a one-year specialization to learn students about all these emerging structures for them to become a R&D engineer in a laboratory or a company in sectors such as transport, energy, defense, or prepare a PhD. Thus, the master’s degree aims to develop skills in design, modeling numerical simulation and experiments of smart structures. As such solutions are likely to involve many physical phenomena (optical, thermal, electromagnetic, …) coupled to mechanical applications, the specialization includes methodologies for mechanical and multiphysics modeling with advanced mathematical, numerical and experimental tools.
Savoir-faire et compétences
On successful completion of the program the student can:
- design a product with smart functionalities to meet a mechanical need
- model the behavior of a material, a component or a structure
- perform numerical simulations, eventually in an uncertain or multiphysics context
- carry out characterization experiments
- carry out a research project including communicating on this project
- develop professional skills to define its own identity, work in a team, and think critically
Programme
The master’s program comprises 2 semesters, each equivalent to 30 ECTS. It is offered to students enrolled in the Mechanics track of the ‘Cursus Master en Ingénierie’ in Smart Structures and Systems Engineering. All courses are taught in English. The program includes a compulsory internship at the end of the year.

Admission
Conditions d'admission
Access is restricted to students holding a first year Master's degree in mechanics, engineering or physics. Students must have skills in numerical programming, physical or mechanical modeling, mechanical experiments (materials and vibrations), and numerical simulation using the finite element method.
Modalités d'inscription
For students enrolled in the 1st year of the master’s degree in mechanics, the end-of-year jury will decide whether to continue in the Smart Mechanics course in the 2nd year.
For other courses, applications are made via the unique Mon Master platform - monmaster.gouv.fr. Students must submit an application file, which is evaluated by a pedagogical committee to assess the suitability of their course of study for the master’s program.
The course is a continuation of studies for holders of a Master 1 in mechanics. It is also a specialization for students with a master’s degree in mechanics or physics, or for students with an engineer degree.
Students from countries covered by the CEF procedure (Centres pour les études en France) must apply via the "Études en France" portal. International students from other countries, particularly European Union member states, must apply via the MonMaster platform in the same way as students resident in France.
Public cible
Holders of a BAC +4 or 5 diploma (Master 1, other Master's degree, engineering diploma or equivalent).
Pré-requis obligatoires
Solid, continuum and structural mechanics – Materials – Finite element method – Scientific programming
Et après
Insertion professionnelle
At the end of the master’s degree, graduates work as engineer or engineering consultant, research and development manager, or continue to a doctorate to pursue an academic career or as a corporate expert. The main sectors of activity are transportation and energy.
