Master of Science Electrical Energy Systems
This master’s program focuses on areas of Electrical Energy Systems dedicated to several industrial applications.
The lectures and projects are structured into three separate pathways: Power Electronics and Grids, Electrodynamics and Mechatronics, and New Technologies of Energy.
Major themes: mechatronics, power electronics, electrical grids, renewable energy, sustainable design
Aims of the program
This program helps students acquire skills related to the production, storage, transmission, conversion (including electromechanical conversion) and use of electrical energy.
The teaching team, which includes industry experts working at the LAPLACE, LAAS and LGC research laboratories, instructs students in the design of power systems (dimensioning and control): static and electromechanical converters, mixed energy configurations including renewable energies, transportation and autonomous networks (smartgrids). Our approach is based on analytical system modeling and numerical optimization and simulation, considering couplings and interactions between system parts. Aspects of sustainability and efficiency are also taken into account.
The courses are supported by numerous group projects designed to help students apply theoretical knowledge.

Research Institutions & Industrial Partners
All teachers also work as researchers at laboratories affiliated to the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS): Plasma and Energy Conversion Laboratory (LAPLACE), Chemical Engineering Laboratory (LGC), and Laboratory for Analysis and Architecture of Systems (LAAS).
A significant percentage of the lectures and industrial projects are managed or imparted by industrial R&D partners such as Airbus, Thales Alenia Space, Actia, Continental, EDF, GDF, SUEZ, CEA, ADEME, Liebherr Aerospace, Airbus Defence and Space, and SNCF.
The program’s industrial ties are strengthened through industrial projects and 6-month-long internships.
Job opportunities
Academic research (30% of graduate students pursue PhD studies) and industrial R&D in:
• Companies focusing on Energy Production and Transfer
• Power Equipment manufacturers (power generators, storage elements, power converters, propulsion actuators)
• Transportation industry (aeronautic, space, maritime, automobile, railway)
