A choice of 3 career paths to guide your career development

As soon as they return from their international placement, the aim is to finalise their professional project during the remaining months. To achieve this, and to take full advantage of the multi-disciplinary nature of the programme, several ‘pathways’ and ‘profiles’ are offered at the end of the course.

Students must choose a pathway and a profile, except for students on work-study contracts (contrat de professionnalisation) who work in a company during the ‘profile’ periods.

Parcours Innovation industrielle

Industrial innovation pathway

Sustainable development pathway

The sustainable development pathway provides an understanding of the major issues involved in sustainable development, with an overview of the various related problems, existing solutions and their limitations. The aim is to develop the concept of human development based on 3 pillars: economic efficiency, social equity and environmental quality.

The course also enables students to acquire new knowledge and engineering skills in the fields of eco-design, life-cycle analysis, renewable energies, energy transition, material resources and recycling, and land-use planning.

The aim of the course is to give students an understanding of current and future sustainable development issues.

The teaching methods used are based on practical experience, with lectures, company visits and an innovation project in which students are required to draw up strategies for transformation, adaptation and change, based on an assessment of what already exists and its limitations.

The knowledge and skills acquired in this course will enable ITEEM graduates to support companies in their transformation and evolution, from an environmental impact point of view.

Innovation and digital transformation pathway

In today’s digital society, it is essential for businesses to embrace digital transformation. Digital innovation can profoundly change a company’s core business by offering its customers new products and services. But it is also a way for the company to transform all its components (business processes, culture, organisation, etc.).

Within a company, digital transformation translates into new strategies, an overhaul of the business model to take advantage of the opportunities offered by new technologies, new digital products and services, optimised productivity, new organisational models and new ways of working.

The aim of the innovation and digital transformation pathway is to create profiles that will advise and support company managers in developing strategies for transformation, adaptation and change management, whether technological, organisational or managerial.

In this context, a broad knowledge of business technologies (development of digital applications – Agile method – Scrum, ERP, CRM, data centres, business intelligence, IT infrastructure, etc.) and in-depth reflection on opportunities and the search for solutions are essential. Much of the learning will be based on the experience of professionals, concrete case studies and company visits. In addition to this experience feedback, the aim will be to provide knowledge of digital solutions (IS, ERP, WMS, BI, etc.) as well as innovative technologies (Machine Learning, etc.).

Industrial innovation pathway

Industry 4.0, also known as the Industry of the Future or the Fourth Industrial Revolution, is fundamentally characterised by intelligent automation and the integration of new technologies into the company’s value chain.

It is a digital transformation that affects not only systems and processes, but also management methods, business models and internal skills development.

As a result, companies need engineers who, on the one hand, know and understand the processes and, on the other, are capable of managing major transformation projects from both a technological and a human point of view.

The aim of the industrial innovation pathway is both to introduce students to the various existing technologies and to draw on lean management methods, a methodology for continuous improvement in industry, in order to bring intelligence to an industrial system, making production more adaptable and allocating resources more efficiently, while guaranteeing service and product quality.

To meet these new challenges, the factory is adapting by exploiting the latest technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Cyberphysical Systems (CPS), Big Data, artificial intelligence, cyber security, augmented reality, autonomous vehicles (AIV), the supply chain and cobotics, in which man and robot interact directly to achieve a common goal.
