Mestrado em Engenharia Industrial - Programa de Eletrônica Impressa e Integrada Sustentável

The Master’s program in Sustainable Printed and Integrated Electronics (Master’s Degree, One Year Graduate Program) is developed to train specialists in the field of printed electronics and equip them with the skills needed to design, develop and add new functionalities to 2D and 3D objects using innovative printing processes.

The program, which combines materials science, electronics and sustainable innovation, will enable graduates to meet the challenges involved in 2D/3D object functionalization and the eco-design of electronic devices. The skills they acquire will allow connected objects to be manufactured at a lower cost and using fewer resources.

Today, these skills are sought after by countless companies in the automotive, aerospace, electronics, healthcare and printing sectors.

This Master’s program is open to students who have completed at least 4 years of higher education or 1 year of graduate studies (the equivalent of 240 ECTS credits) in France or abroad. It is a degree course of the Master in Industrial Engineering.

Students can obtain scholarships, either in France or in their home country, to cover all or part of the enrolment fee as well as living costs. This program also includes a final-year internship lasting 5-6 months, either in a company or in a laboratory, which pays around €600 a month if it takes place in France.

Grenoble INP – Pagora, UGA, a unique school specialised in the fields of fibre, paper, print media and biobased materials

Grenoble INP – Pagora, UGA, specialises in the fields of fibre, biobased materials, paper and print media . The school offers masters-level and apprenticeship-based engineering training in these rapidly growing, cutting-edge fields, with courses that are unique in Europe. It is supported by major industry and research players in France and abroad.

As one of the eight graduate schools of engineering and management schools of Grenoble INP Institute of Engineering and Management, Grenoble Alpes University (an institution that plays host to 9,000 students), Grenoble INP – Pagora trains future engineers and professionals in the fibre, paper, printing, packaging, biobased materials and biomass valorisation sectors . It is these key players and decision makers who will pick up the environmental challenges facing our society.

The school has been involved in and committed to the circular bioeconomy and plant-based chemistry since the day it was founded. It was awarded Quality, Safety and Environment certification in 2011.

Grenoble INP – Pagora is partnered with numerous universities in Europe and North America, as well as being a member of several international networks . The school teaches its 2nd year modules in English and encourages international mobility through internships, study projects and semesters abroad. A core element of the training involves ensuring that students have the capacity to work in an intercultural and international setting. This is crucial to the excellence and employability of future engineers.

The school also boasts its own research unit, the Laboratory of Process Engineering for Biorefinery, Bio-based Materials and Functional Printing (LGP2) , which is used by 50 researchers and doctoral students, both French and foreign. They conduct research on nanocellulose, the valorisation of plant biomass, printing processes for surface functionalisation, as well as processes that use the smallest quantity of energy and raw materials possible. The laboratory is run under the auspices of the CNRS, Grenoble INP – UGA and the Agefpi.
