EIT Manufacturing Master's - Platforms for digitalized value networks programme

'Platforms for digitalized value networks' is one of the five programmes on offer at Centrale Nantes via the EIT Manufacturing Master School. This programme is a combination of studying manufacturing sciences including the usage and adoption of advanced digital solutions and platforms. Students study in two different countries moving from their entry university at the end of the first year to their exit university in a different country for the second year. The language of instruction throughout is English.
Course Overview

The courses at Centrale Nantes will introduce the paradigms of company management based on new information environments and systems, including cyber-physical systems.

At the conclusion of the programme, students should be able to model an enterprise, to simulate and optimize its performance, to model and develop solutions for inter-operability between information systems, based on ontologies and multi-view models at different scales (shop floor, factory, company, extended enterprise). New technologies like IoT, smart and agile organizations, etc., and interaction technologies, like virtual and augmented reality, will be integrated in the courses. The place of humans in new smart organizations will also be considered.
