One of the pillars of the TECV (Transition Énergétique pour la Croissance Verte - Energy Transition for Green Growth) is the professional academics of expert managers. INES and USMB/Polytech have historically been leading national players in this field. Here, they are offering a Master's degree in academics for continuing professional education to meet the challenge of this transition.
