Location

ENPC, Champs-sur-Marne Campus

Description

The “Civil Engineering” program is designed for students interested in various sectors of construction: buildings, public works, engineering structures, geotechnics, structures, marine works, energy structures, construction materials, etc.

The first year of the program (M1 “Civil Engineering and Construction”) provides all the necessary foundations for civil engineering and construction: scientific foundations (mechanics, physics, thermodynamics, etc.), technical foundations (drawing, materials, etc.) and cultural foundations. The M1 is open to students who have not previously studied civil engineering.

The various M2 tracks allow students to specialize in a specific area of construction: structures (“GCC” track), geotechnics (“MSROE” track), or materials (“MSSC/SMCD” track). They enable students to quickly enter the workforce or continue on to a doctoral thesis.

The training program prepares students to work in all sectors of the construction industry (buildings, public works, geotechnics, structures, marine works, energy structures, materials, etc.) and opens the door to a wide range of careers: project management, project supervision, design offices, construction companies, methods, research & development.
