Master Mecanique — M1 - Génie Mécanique

The tuition fee is 250 EUR per year.

Mécanique (Mechanics) studies how forces act on and move objects, forming the foundation of mechanical engineering. The Génie Mécanique (Mechanical Engineering) track of this master's degree applies these principles to the design, analysis, and manufacture of mechanical systems and components. Typical subjects include solid mechanics, materials science, thermodynamics, manufacturing processes, mechanical design, and the use of computer-aided design and simulation tools to develop and test mechanical systems before they are built. Students learn to move from a theoretical understanding of mechanics to the practical work of designing parts, machines, and mechanical systems that meet performance, safety, and manufacturing requirements. This combination of theory and applied design work is central to mechanical engineering as a professional discipline. Career paths tied to this field include mechanical design engineer, manufacturing or production engineer, research and development engineer, and roles across industries such as automotive, aerospace, energy, and industrial equipment, as well as further doctoral study in mechanical engineering. The discipline suits students who want to apply physics and mathematics to the concrete design and production of mechanical systems rather than to purely theoretical research. This master's degree is offered by Université Grenoble Alpes in Saint Martin d'Hères, France, and instruction is in French. It runs over two years, with an intake beginning in September, and yearly tuition is 250 EUR.
