Presentation
Mention Electronics, Electrical Energy, Automation: L1 in the PCSI Portal (Physics, Chemistry, Engineering Sciences)
The objective of the EEA degree is to provide students with a solid fundamental scientific education (mathematics, physics) associated with technologies in the field of EEA: electronics and optoelectronics, electrical engineering, automation and industrial computing.
This Bachelor's degree is designed to integrate into the first year students who have completed the Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, or Engineering Science specialties in the first and last years of high school.
The EEA license is divided into one course. A first year common to the PCSI Portal (Physics, Chemistry, Sciences and Engineering).
In the 2nd and 3rd years, in addition to the students who entered the license in L1, students from DUT, BTS or preparatory classes can enter the program to continue their studies by long term studies (Bac +5) in the field of technology and EEA in particular.
Objectives
At the end of this training, the student will have acquired:
- General scientific skills to analyze a scientific engineering problem and implement an experimental approach to solve this problem;
- scientific skills in order to solve an EEA problem by knowing how to use the tools and techniques of the engineer and the theoretical and practical knowledge of the EEA field.
Know-how and skills
General scientific skills:
- Know and respect the regulations
- Adopt a multidisciplinary approach to solve a scientific problem
- Analyze and solve a scientific problem independently while working in a team.
- Implement an experimental approach: use the most common measuring devices and techniques; analyze experimental data, appreciate the limits of validity of a model, solve a complex problem by successive approximations.
- Know how to use and analyze technical documentation, especially in English.
- Use a programming language.
- Use mathematical tools.
- Use data acquisition and analysis software.
Disciplinary scientific skills:
- Know how to use theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Automation (EEA).
- Use current techniques in the fields of EEA: synthesis and analysis of electrical diagrams, modeling of automatic systems, management of the power of a machine, synthesis and analysis of industrial computer programs, etc.
- Make the connection between the fundamental concepts of EAS and everyday technological applications.
- To become aware of the transversal domains of EEA and technological applications: sensors, robotics, microelectronics, nanotechnology, energy, space...
Organization
Program
The EEA license is organized in 6 semesters (from S1 to S6) and structured in compulsory UE (teaching units). Each UE has a value in credits (ECTS). Each semester is validated by 30 ECTS. The licence is obtained after having validated 180 ECTS.
The EEA Bachelor's degree is an initial training in which the subjects specific to EEA occupy more and more space as the students progress (6 ECTS in L1 S1, 6 ECTS in L1 S2, 23 ECTS in L2 S3, 26 ECTS in L2 S4, 28 ECTS in L3 S5 and 30 ECTS in L3 S6).

Admission
Target audience
In L1: access by right to any holder of a French baccalaureate or equivalent diploma, regardless of the year in which it was obtained. Compulsory registration on the Parcoursup admission site.
In L2 or L3: access by right for students who have validated L1 PCSI, a1st year of health studies (LAS - MMOPK or PASS with science reorientation) and L2. On file for students coming from BUT, BTS, other universities, CPGE or other STS licenses of the UM. Applications are reviewed by a pedagogical committee in May-June for the first wave and in September for the second wave.
Students who have never been enrolled in a French university or high school should contact the International Relations Department of the University of Montpellier.
Necessary pre-requisites
Good knowledge of mathematics and physics (specialization in mathematics and physics-chemistry in the first and last years of high school)
Recommended prerequisites
Knowledge of basic electricity

Further studies
The main objective of the Bachelor's degree in EEA is the pursuit of studies towards a Master's degree, in particular the Master's degree in EEA at the UM.
At the end of the L2-EEA, the student will be able to register in L3-EEA but also in L3 Applied Physics (after advice of a pedagogical commission), to integrate certain engineering schools (department MEA of Polytech' Montpellier, INSA, ENSEEIHT, Supélec...) on file, to apply to certain professional licenses of the IUT-30 and IUT-34, or those carried by the Faculty of Science of the UM.
At the L3-EEA level, the student can also apply (on file) to enter certain engineering schools in the same way as at the L2-EEA level.
Continuing your studies abroad
Because of the national and international recognition of these research centers and the contacts developed by Montpellier's teacher-researchers and researchers, further studies can be carried out, in whole or in part, in other French and foreign universities.
Bridges and reorientation
There are many gateways between the different courses in the field of EEA within the University of Montpellier (Licence EEA, Licence Physique et applications and Licence Professionnelle Acoustique at the Faculty of Sciences - DUT GEII / Mesure physique at the IUT of Montpellier, Nîmes and Béziers - Licences Professionnelles at the IUT of Montpellier - Filière MEA at Polytech' Montpellier). One of the strong points is that many teachers involved in these different courses are attached to the IES (Institute of Electronics and Systems - UMR CNRS 5214) and the LIRMM (Laboratory of Computer Science, Robotics and Microelectronics of Montpellier, UMR CNRS 5506).
The L2 EEA is accessible, on file, to students of DUT-GEII, BTS electronics and electrotechnics and CPGE. The best of these students enter the L3 EEA directly.
In the same way, our L2 students have the possibility of reorienting themselves towards the professional licenses, in alternation, OSSI, CAIEE, GEEB and SE proposed by the IUT of Montpellier as well as the professional license Acoustics proposed by the Faculty of Sciences in continuous training.
Professional integration
The EEA license is primarily aimed at pursuing a Master's degree in EEA. However, access to professional life as a senior technician is possible in all types of companies (large groups, SMEs, VSEs, public services and local authorities) in the field of electronics, electrical engineering, industrial computing and automation.
