Why should I become a smart electronic systems engineer?

ESIEE Paris electronics engineers have a wide range of skills: digital processing hardware acceleration, power consumption optimization, wireless communication and, more generally, the design of customized electronic systems.

This knowledge will enable them to work in a wide range of electronics applications: automotive, finance, aeronautics, space, medical, component suppliers, etc.

Electronics is ubiquitous and plays a key role in the French economy. With reindustrialization, the need for electronics engineers is growing.

What will the programme bring me?

Objectives
- To become a multi-skilled engineer in electronics
- To learn how to conceive smart electronic systems from the choice of the components to the conception
- To follow a training that responds to tomorrow’s challenges : the internet of things, artificial intelligence, datascience, cybersecurity…
Skills

How is the programme structured?

At the end of the first year of the engineering cycle, students choose their field of study. The course of study is spread over two years with compulsory and optional scientific and technical courses, management courses and modern languages.

Programme

2nd year of the engineering cycle

The courses take place over two semesters, each one subdivided into two periods. The first semester consists of two teaching periods. The second semester is made up of one teaching period and an internship period of at least 12 weeks. From January to April, students must work in teams on multidisciplinary projects proposed by industrial partners, laboratories or ESIEE Paris teachers. All students may take optional modern language 2 courses.

UE - Advanced science and technology (330 h - 27 ECTS)
UE - Open science and technology (110 h - 10 ECTS)
UE - Management and human sciences (120 h - 7 ECTS)
UE - Modern languages (90 h - 6 ECTS)
Internship (12 ECTS)

3rd year of the engineering cycle

The courses take place over in two semesters. The first semester consists of two teaching periods. In the second semester, the student must complete an end-of-studies internship of at least 24 weeks (6 months) in a company or research laboratory.
