WHAT YOU LIKE

It means building, creating, improving, and innovating, and contributing to the energy and digital transition in the construction sector.

WHAT MOTIVATES YOU

It means being a key player in the construction industry with a strong commitment to sustainable building: from the design and technical analysis of structures—including energy efficiency—through to site management.

TRAINING AT A GLANCE

  • Interdisciplinarity
  • Sustainable construction
  • Building Structure
  • Renewable energy
  • Construction or Renovation Project Management

The program prepares students to design, size, construct, and operate buildings using a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach.

It combines the fundamentals of building with the environmental, energy, and collaborative challenges of construction projects. The focus is on green building, including the design and renovation of buildings with low environmental impact that incorporate sustainable materials such as wood, rammed earth, and straw.

THES THE 3 PILLARS OF THE TRAINING PROGRAM

BUILDINGS: Design, size, construct, and operate buildings using a multidisciplinary approach (structural, thermal, etc.) and involving multiple stakeholders (architects, project owners, engineering firms, contractors).

GREEN BUILDING (SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION): building or renovating a structure while minimizing environmental impacts at every stage of construction and use.

ENERGY: Integrating energy efficiency and renewable energy.

SKILLS 

  • Promote the prudent and efficient management of natural resources and building materials
  • Managing the environmental footprint of buildings throughout their lifecycle
  • Manage and oversee a construction project from design through completion, taking into account its technical, financial, and human aspects
  • Design and size building foundations and structures (concrete, wood, metal, or rammed earth)
  • Developing efficient energy systems that incorporate renewable energy
