Mechanical engineering

Disciplines are divided into 4 main categories:

• Analysis and calculation tools (experimental methods, numerical methods, mathematics)
• Dynamics and systems (vibrations, system control, dynamics)
• Mechanics, transfers, materials (materials, mechanics of deformable solids, mechanics of fluids, thermal transfers)
• Design, manufacturing, control (design and analysis of mechanical systems, manufacturing, control, quality)

But also:

• Acquiring scientific, technical and technological knowledge
• Learning by focusing on specific projects, in partnership with businesses, to have the opportunity to contextualise and concretise knowledge
• Enjoying teaching methods that combine digital and experimental tools to allow you to comprehend and analyse physical phenomena
• Training in innovation and R&D

A significant part of the training is dedicated to languages, human and social sciences (introduction to management methods, marketing, communications) and physical education

Option FEE

The Student Entrepreneurship Programme (FEE LYONTECH) aims to provide training in entrepreneurship, with the support of a living project, which involves understanding and assuming the risks specific to the company. This is a six-month option, from February to September, the last year of the engineering cycle. It replaces the Project.

Plastronics course
The convergence of plastics and electronics

An original training towards the profession of "plastronics project manager" which is aimed at students who have validated their 4th year.

• 1st semester: 17 weeks of course
• 2nd semester: industrial internship

As part of the training, INSA Lyon's engineering students must complete at least one stay abroad: internship or exchange at a partner university.

Sectors: energy (wind-powered, hydrokinetic, nuclear and fossil energy), transportation (space, aeronautic, motor, rail and naval transportation), biomedical and healthcare, sports and leisure activities, plastics processes, packaging design (for cosmetics, agro-food products, etc.), mechatronics and robotics, luxury industry (horology, etc.), eco-industry, mechanical construction and industrial machines, construction industry, etc.

Jobs: research engineer, R&D engineer, calculation engineer, project manager, production manager, process engineer, maintenance manager, quality control, etc.
