Physical engineering
and embedded systems
Master of Science
Energy, transport, information systems, health … The training completed in ENSICAEN prepares engineers capable of providing innovative and optimized solutions in many fields.
With fundamentals in mathematics, physics, measurements and signal processing, our students are trained in sensors and instrumentation engineering, digital processing and energy.Once they have graduated, our engineering students are capable of integrating the research and development department of large groups or innovative SME, in France or abroad.
Major to choose
from in the second year for a personalized course
Nuclear Engineering and Energy
They master energy production systems and acquire skills in radioprotection/safety and instrumentation/ nuclear measurements.
Physical engineering and sensors
Embedded systems and automation
Connected devices, vehicles, satellites, radars …
Our students are trained to innovate in the field of communication systems and industrial processes.
They master the conception of electronic systems using advanced algorithms.
ACADEMIC MOBILITY

Zoom on the Immersive Electronic Project
Every year since 2013, the engineering students from the majors “ Instrumentation Physics & Sensors” and “Embedded systems and automation” do role-play in the form of technological contests. In a limited time, the goal is to find the best technical solution while keeping a project management and a customer relation beyond reproach.
ADMISSIONS
Become “ensicaennais” !
The quality of how they are welcomed, the accommodation and their integration is a major preoccupation of ENSICAEN.
That is why they are taken care of by the International Club’s engineering students when they arrive and receive support from the International Relations Office which provides continuous follow-up to facilitate administrative and logistic procedures. The international students also participate in cultural and convivial events organized by the International Club or the Student Office during the year.
