Master Genie Industriel — SYSTÈMES EMBARQUÉS

Tuition is 292 USD per year.

Université de Picardie Jules-Verne offers a Master Genie Industriel — SYSTÈMES EMBARQUÉS, a two-year master's program in industrial engineering based in Saint Quentin Cedex, France, taught in French, with a specialization in embedded systems. Embedded systems engineering deals with the design of computing hardware and software that is built into larger devices or machines to perform specific functions, such as the electronics controlling a vehicle, an appliance, or an industrial machine. Students in this field typically study electronics, microcontroller programming, real-time operating systems, sensors and actuators, digital signal processing, and system integration, learning to design components that must operate reliably within strict constraints on power, size, and processing capacity. Coursework often includes hands-on work with hardware prototyping boards, low-level programming languages, and communication protocols used to connect embedded devices with larger networks or control systems. Because embedded systems sit at the intersection of electronics and computer science, students also develop skills in software development, testing, and debugging applied to hardware-constrained environments, alongside broader industrial engineering topics such as project management and quality control. Graduates typically pursue careers as embedded systems engineers, electronics engineers, firmware developers, or systems integration engineers, working in sectors such as automotive, aerospace, telecommunications, industrial automation, and consumer electronics, where embedded computing is increasingly central to product design. Some continue toward specialized technical certifications or further graduate study in electronics or computer engineering. The program lasts two years, begins in September, and carries a yearly tuition of 250 EUR, with instruction conducted entirely in French.
