Innovation through Physics and Engineering

Thermal Energy Engineering

Master in Thermal Energy Engineering (TE)

ENERGY TE is an EIPHI graduate School Master focusing on Research & Innovation in the field of thermal systems optimization and management. Experimentals technics and numerical simulations of multiphysics systems are at the heart of the program. At the end of the training you obtain an expertise in Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics of renewable energy systems.

Like all the Master Degree of EIPHI Graduate school, this master is designed for R&D engineer positions in big international companies or smaller High-Tech industries but can also be the springboard for a career as Researcher or Professor.

Energy Master Students can pursue their studies with a Ph.D. in the Energy Department of Femto-St Research Lab or Belfort’s Fuel Cell Laboratory FC Lab presented thereafter.

Curriculum

The TE master’s program takes place over 2 academic years divided into 4 semesters. Each semester corresponds to an accreditation of 30 ECTS, which leads to a total at the end of 120 ECTS.   The program has an extensive international flavor, with all courses taught in English.  The teaching staff are highly qualified researchers with international recognition.
