Objectives: Master's degree's mention in Earth and Planetary Sciences, Environment:
This training aims to provide knowledge of the entire chain, from the concept of scientific observation instrument to the use of data in order to meet market demands and new professions related to emerging applications ( Miniaturization of satellites, Cubesats, Satellite fleets, Drones, etc.). This training is therefore strongly oriented towards the quality of observation and data by providing a better understanding of the emergence of instrumental concepts, AIT / AIV approaches (integration and tests), data analyzes and validation of final products.
It integrates phases of practical examples in the form of team projects tutored on concrete cases (Learning by doing) and an internship in a company or in a laboratory. This training aims to meet the needs of the private sector, of so-called "instrumental" public research laboratories, but can continue with the preparation of a doctorate, ideally within the framework of CIFRE grants because of the important needs concerning innovation. in this sector.
Intended for: At least Master 1 or equivalent
Master 2 or Engineering degree
Atypical profiles on study of the file
Possibility of a double degree in the last year of engineering school
