ISC-ROC Study Program
Students follow the ISC-ROC program over 2 years at the French University of Toulon (4 semesters / 120 ECTS).
The first year commences by building up a solid background in mechanics for robotics, control, artificial intelligence, electronics for embedded systems and connected objects. Teaching will be mainly in French although a number of first semester courses and distinguished international scholar lectures will be taught in English.
At the end of the first year, students will have the opportunity to participate and compete in an international Marine Intelligent Robotics championship and symposium.
In the second year, students will develop their skills in applied robotics and control, applied artificial intelligence and connected objects (IoT). A number of courses will be given by distinguished experts from INRIA (French National Research Institute), ISM (Institute of Movement Sciences, Aix-Marseille University), and Ifremer (National Institute for Ocean Science), among others.
Semester 4 is devoted to a Master’s thesis in the context of a remunerated research or industry internship. It can be carried out at any 50+ academic or industry international associate partners, always under the co-supervision of the University of Toulon.
ROC graduate students will obtain the ISC master's degree (Ingénierie des Systèmes Complexes) from the University of Toulon, with a specialization in Robotics and Connected Objects.
