Presentation

The Master Energy of the University of Montpellier is a multidisciplinary training opened in 2011 which is declined according to 2 courses in initial training and a course in alternation.

7 departments of the Faculty of Science participate in this training, which is articulated around 4 pillars:

- Network management

- Management of sources and resources

- Energy storage

- Energy conversion

Objectives

The objective of the Energy Master's degree is to train managers of cross-disciplinary projects in the field of energy, capable of answering the questions posed by local authorities and companies regarding the choice of resources and the management of energy mixes. It also aims to train executives capable of managing the various research/development and/or organizational aspects of projects related to the management of energy resources, energy conversion and storage.

Know-how and skills

The graduate is capable of carrying out the missions given to an executive in research, development or project management in a company, an academic laboratory or within local authorities. The knowledge and skills acquired will enable him/her to :

- Work in a multidisciplinary team covering a broad spectrum of basic and applied sciences

- Work in a disciplinary team on the management, storage or conversion of Energy

- Implementing experimental approaches

- Analyze the operation of processes, to diagnose problems and propose modifications, for example to improve energy efficiency

- To innovate by proposing research and development avenues leading to the development of new devices related to the problems of energy conversion and storage

He will have acquired the following transversal skills allowing a quick integration in the professional environment:

- Ability to work in an international context

- Work independently: establish priorities, manage time,

- Working in a team: integration, positioning, collaboration

- Communicate: write clearly, prepare appropriate communication materials,

Management, Sources, Storage and Conversion of Energy (G2Sco)

The Master's degree in Energy Management, Sources, Storage and Conversion (G2SCO) deals with all topics related to the Energy theme:

- Energy and societal issues, changing needs, management of the energy mix, energy transition.

- Energy efficiency.

- Issues related to energy sources and resources (fossil, nuclear, non-conventional) and modes of energy production (biological, chemical, physical), with particular emphasis on renewable resources (biomass, geothermal, wind, solar, tidal and hydro).

- Energy conversion and storage systems and energy carriers.

The training also includes lessons on the problems associated with waste reprocessing (nuclear, CO2 sequestration) as well as training on project management, innovation and technology transfer.

Grid Management and Renewable Energy (GREEN) - Apprenticeship

The GREEN track trains students to meet the challenges of profound changes in energy production and consumption patterns. The themes studied in the GREEN course will be related to multi-source / multi-load networks:

- Integration of local fluctuating energy production (solar or wind)

-Development of optimal energy management strategies and monitoring methods.

- Storage issues.

- Self-consumption .

This course is exclusively open to work-study programs.
