Engineering

The course consists of three parts, each worth 30 credits

• Consolidation of theoretical knowledge
• Development of occupational skills
• Master’s thesis: Applied R&D project in conjunction with a business.

The emphasis is on the development of both personal, methodological and entrepreneurial competencies and technical skills, preparing graduates for roles as project managers in a business.

Aimed at the best 35% of Bachelor’s students in the Engineering and Architecture area at UAS level or equivalent, the MSE draws on the best teaching staff from the Applied R&D laboratories in various HES-SO institutions, organised in research institutes. Each student has access to the institute infrastructure and equipment and, if necessary, to the facilities available in partner businesses. This guarantees optimal conditions for the development of high-level professional projects.

HES-SO’s course stands out from other Master’s programmes in Swiss and foreign universities, thanks to:

• Its alignment with the needs of the job market, particularly at the level of small and medium-sized businesses
• Its focus on professional practice
• The high level of supervision offered to students
• The opportunity for students to develop their own study agreement in conjunction with their adviser, i.e. creating an optimal pathway at each stage of the course to meet their training and skills development objectives.

This master is offered in national coordination with the other Swiss Universities of Applied Sciences. A large number of modules and an increased offer is available at the Swiss level. More information on https://www.msengineering.ch/fr/
