Print versionSummer School with the University of Austin (Texas)
Since 2005, the University of Austin has run a summer course in mechanical engineering at INSA. Around ten students, accompanied by one of their professors who has piloted the project, spend 5 to 6 weeks on our campus. They follow courses, validated by their university, in mechanical engineering and French. Thanks to this new programme, 4 Insa students have the opportunity to study for one semester in Austin.
In June-July 2009, around 12 students from Austin and another American university have studied on our campus.
Spring Semester : programme in Aero-mechanics from February to June with GE4
| The challenge of this programme, open for the moment to students from the universities of Buffalo (New York state), Austin (Texas) and other US and Canadian universities is to offer courses in English to these students. This exchange has been organized, on the French side, with ENAC and ISAE who take part in teaching the course. Two third year modules on mechanical engineering are taught. A module on French and European history complete the programme and industrial and tourist visits are also organized. INSA, as the programme coordinator, is responsible for most of the logistics involved. In return, the two partner schools and INSA can send engineering students for a semester of study to the American universities concerned. In 2010, the number of American students on the programme is around 12. |

New ! Post Master programme in “Risk engineering”
The objective of this new autumn semester is to offer courses in English dealing with generic aspects of risk management including concepts of risk as well as risk analysis (identification and estimation), treatment, communication and management systems. The second part deals with applications in specific domains: process safety, dependability of computing systems, toxicological risks for human health and environment, natural and technological risks for construction, risk associated with electromagnetic fields and electricity. This second part does not require deep knowledge of each domain as an introduction to useful skills will be supplied. A large part of the lectures is provided by professionals.
