Designing mechanical systems, mastering production technologies and machenising production processes require extensive knowledge in mechanics, combined to a full command of -conventional- subtractive technologies, and additive manufacturing.
Presentation
The course in mechanical engineering offered by ENISE gives future engineers the ability to:
- Define the specifications for a mechanical system, design it, dimension it, create a prototype and validate it
- Test and automate a mechanical system
- Devise, implement and manage a product's manufacturing process as well as the quality certification process (checks and trials) in accordance with the relevant standards
- Optimise a new manufacturing process while integrating the technical and economical specifications of the product as well as its durability, with simulation and monitoring tools
- Decide on the organisation and management of an industrial system
- Analyse management indicators from existing industrial systems and contribute to a quality assurance system
- Perform research activities in mechanical engineering, set up instrumented experimental devices
In their fifth year, the students in engineering can choose one the three following specialties, consistently with their career objectives:
- Design and simulation
- Production and industrial application
- Management of industrial systems
Fifth year students also have the possibility to begin with their occupational integration with a professional training contract, to complete their engineering training with a research masters degree, or to pursue a dual degree with one of our partner universities in the world.
Advantages
Substantial industrial integration
Internships, professional training contracts, courses with apprenticeship, lectures given by professionals, industrial contracts… all are projects of partnerships with socio-economic organisations, all examples of ENISE's strong bond with the business world.
Training in a professional environment / Internships
For their students to acquire a good knowledge of the working world, ENISE includes three internships in their courses:
- An 8 to 12-week internship in the 2nd year
- An 18-week internship in the 4th year
- A 22 to 24-week internship in the 5th year
Projects
During their professional life, an engineer will be faced with solving concrete and complex technical issues, while leading projects each with their own technical, organisational and financial dimension. Several professional projects are included in the course:
- The 3rd semester project confronts our engineering students with scientific and society issues taken beyond the strict teaching of the subjects
- The project of the 5th semester aims for the students to use their skills in science and technique by working on a multidisciplinary issue, within the profession they have chosen (eg. projects in architecture, organising a construction site in Civil engineering);
- The project carried out in the 8th semester has an objective of development and innovation inscribed in entrepreneurship, by combining two complementary disciplines (eg. Mechanical engineering + Civil engineering, Civil engineering + Physical engineering, etc.). The idea is for the students to develop their innovation skills in a multicultural environment;
- The project in the 9th semester is dedicated to learning about a research activity linked with the domaines of expertise of ENISE.
Global mobility
Spending some time in another country for the purpose of an internship or via an academic exchange is the opportunity for the students to reinforce their language skills and open up to other cultures. It is compulsory to study abroad for at least one semester to obtain any of our diplomas. It can be an Erasmus academic exchange, an internship or a dual degree at one of our 117 academic partners located in 34 countries.
Languages
The language classes will give you the necessary fluency in a professional environment. The required level of English is a TOEIC score of 790 points in order to pass the exam for the diploma. One-week-long intensive courses are organised for this purpose in the course of the last 3 years. A second language is included in the course programme.
Bridging with Ecole Centrale de Lyon
For their third year, the engineering students recruited after the baccalauréat have the possibility to enter Ecole Centrale de Lyon and pursue with a non-specialist engineering curriculum (in the 1st year of the engineering cycle). A selection is based on application, with an interview.
In their 4th year, and depending on their career objectives, engineering students may choose one the specialisations offered by Ecole Centrale de Lyon for the fifth year.
