Program

This program constitutes a coherent 5-year post-secondary curriculum structured around:
1/ a solid foundation of basic scientific knowledge, ensuring graduates’ adaptability and their ability to advance their careers within a company.
2/ a multidisciplinary approach that enables each student to understand and collaborate with other specialists within a project team.
3/ Specialization and expertise in project management enable graduates to become operational quickly by effectively combining technical skills with strategic considerations, regulatory constraints, and human or financial impacts. This multifaceted approach is developed through tutorials and team-based projects led by corporate executives. Beginning in the first year of the master’s program (M1), students apply these tools and knowledge during a long-term internship at a company. The M2 is completed as an apprenticeship to provide initial professional experience with a high degree of autonomy and an opportunity to take on responsibility.
