Objectives: The MAGIS course is a training in the mechanics of materials and structures. It aims to establish the relationships between the process, the material, its microstructure and its mechanical properties for advanced industrial applications and innovative processes. It is a general approach in solid mechanics which is presented, which applies to a wide variety of materials (metals, ceramics, glasses, composites, polymers, foams, shape memory alloys, etc.) in order to make it possible to understand dimensioning under complex loading (3D, quasi-random, anisothermal, multi-physics…).
Students are trained in scientific methodology including experimental characterization with state-of-the-art tools to the simulation of the mechanical behavior of structures, including the understanding and modeling of deformation mechanisms and couplings between the various phenomena at work. .
Intended for: Students
Degree Level (EU) : 7 - (EQC level or equivalent)
Prerequisites: To access this study path, applicants must hold study an M1 in MIP, MMS or IT in the discipline (transfer paths may be granted from an M1 in MMS, ISM or ISM Learning). Applicants from outside the discipline: M1 in Mechanics, Physics (with a strong focus on mechanics) or mathematics. Minimum level B2 in English.
Admission requirements: This training is a Master in science and mechanics of materials and sciences of the engineer that lasts two years. You can apply in the 1st year of Master (M1) or in the second year of Master (M2).
To apply in M1, you must have a license or equivalent in the field of mechanics, physics and/or engineering.
To apply in M2, you must have a level M1 or equivalent in the field of mechanics, physics and/or engineering.
Acquired skills during the training : Independently formulate a mechanical problem to meet a given objective, from the modelling of the system of study to the modelling of stresses and boundary conditions by proposing an approach to an appropriate solution
Use theoretical or practical concepts and knowledge to understand a problem and put it into an equation
Apply analytical, numerical or experimental problem-solving tools at a level of proficiency: justified choice of existing tools or ad hoc production of specific tools and critical analysis of results
Design and optimise an innovative scientific and/or technological solution from a development or research perspective (this may concern a product or an experimental protocol).
Communicate in written or oral form, in a clear, concise and educational manner, scientifically argued, interpreted and discussed ideas with a view to their development and use by the scientific community (professional or student).
Carry out an individual or team project in a manner that demonstrates good organisation and interpersonal skills (coordination or management of actions, project management, feedback, teamwork, autonomy, responsibility, initiatives, etc.).
Targeted careers : A doctoral thesis in the field opens up a great many opportunities, both in engineering and academic careers, since the social and economic field covered by the Master 2's key aspects is very much in demand. The Master's programme also gives students access to a powerful network of industrial relations, characteristic of this area of research and development. This paves to way to careers in academia or jobs in large public or private research laboratories and high-tech industries (aeronautics, space, energy, automotive and transport, advanced mechanical industries). The training is programme is backed by a number of companies (SAFRAN, ONERA, EDF, CEA, Saint-Gobain, Michelin, Renault, PSA Peugeot Citroën, etc.) which offer internship subjects and research projects and, in some cases, provide specialised training.
