Summary

Cities are experiencing profound technological changes in terms of power supply, with smart grids and buildings fast becoming essential links to pro-active consumers. This Master course backs onto the outstanding scientific and technological environment of Grenoble in the field of energy.

Objectives

The general objective is to acquire the high level of scientific knowledge and skill required to managethe full energy chain (production, distribution, use) in relation to economic, human and social factors. The course aims to develop the skills needed to work as part of a versatile team, as well as the creaticity and adaptability required as part of an evolving career path.Our course will enable you to
  • design, analyze, model, solve and operate a complex energy system, taking into account both the energy chain as a whole (production, distribution, use), local policies.
  • develop diagnostic techniques and solve complex problems by selecting and mobilizing the best analytical, numerical or experimental tools.
  • work as part of a complex international and multicultural team.
  • conceive and manage inter-disciplinary, research or industrial projects in an international context.
  • develop innovative ideas, test and implement breakthrough technologies, while being sensitive to environmental, societal and human constraints
  • anticipate future needs, such as emerging energy markets,to propose socially and culturally suitable regional solutions based on new technological advances.
