Presentation

The growing power of digital technology and artificial intelligence is generating industrial and educational needs to train senior R&D executives in the design of digital solutions for sport and health. The rapid evolution of this sector calls for a rapid response in terms of training.

  • The creation of the Master STAPS: Ingénierie et Ergonomie de l'Activité Physique - IEAP (RNCP38699) in Montpellier meets this need for a human-centered digital transition in the world of sport and health. Compared with the skills certified by existing STAPS programs in Montpellier:The nature of the EIPA skills is best suited to the pedagogical project and the research base.
  • The anchoring of these skills in the industrial and economic fabric of the metropolitan and regional area is much more visible with an EIPA master's degree.

Organization

Program

The program is organized with the following objectives in mind:

Promote interdisciplinarity in sport, health and digital technology: certified skills in all three fields (core curriculum), with a major in one field (internships and projects)
Training through action from Master 1: a majority of ECTS in internships and tutored projects (mentoring approach) in Master 1 and Master 2
Strengthen the Master Doctorate link: from Master 1, students build a personalized project that can lead to a doctorate in industry or academia.
Opening up to the international scene: In line with the Erasmus+ program, students are encouraged to take internships abroad, and most courses are taught in English (100% English for DigiMove).

The core curriculum (80% of courses) is shared by all courses in both Master 1 and Master 2. All courses are taught in English. 

The courses differ in the types of internships and the nature of the projects:

  • 2SIA: personal engineering project + company internship DigiMove: personal research project + laboratory internship
  • DigiMove: personal research project + laboratory internship
