Presentation
The department IT and Management department trains engineers with a dual skill set enabling them to take up positions of responsibility in companies in the design of information systems, the management of major IT projects or the development of innovative technologies. The courses cover the fundamental aspects of computer science, mathematics and management, and emphasise initiative and autonomy.
Objectives
To acquire and consolidate the theoretical bases essential to the engineer and fundamental in the field of computer science and management.
Fundamental courses in computer science, applied mathematics and management, linked to the discovery of the professional world.
Know-how and skills
Upon graduation, the GI student engineer :
- has acquired a solid scientific foundation in computer science, decision mathematics, statistics, project management methodology;
- has a good knowledge of the company's business and management issues;
- is able to lead an IT project from its conception to its production;
- is aware of team management, sustainable development and social responsibility issues, as well as business creation.
He/she is able to perform the following functions:
- Computer systems designer and architect
- IT Project Manager
- Web and mobile designer and developer
- Information Systems Consultant

Internships, tutored projects
Internship | Mandatory |
|---|---|
Internship abroad | Possible |
Work experience periods punctuate the three years spent in the school:
- Discovery internship in a company at the end of the3rd year during the summer (1 month minimum) to discover the professional world.
- Internships in companies
- The4th year concludes with a student-engineer internship, carried out during the summer (2 months minimum) within a company.
- In the5th year, after the completion of the industrial project, students do an engineering internship (minimum 5 months) in a company, in France or abroad.
-
In grade5, students with a suitable profile can :
- complete a 12-month professional contract within a company. The professional contract includes the completion of an industrial project and an internship in a company.
- follow a professional master's degree or a research master's degree in parallel with their course at Polytech, in certain partner university departments (AES at the University of Montpellier).
In the4th and5th years, they carry out an industrial project (300 hours) which places them in a professional situation and allows them to develop their autonomy
