About the program

The e∙sense project offers courses that complement students’ initial training, covering the technical aspects of energy (physics, chemistry, EEA) and its social dimensions (society, economy, environment).
Organized around skill trees, students can explore and learn about the project’s themes.

Objective

To study energy in all its forms, combining different disciplines and offering different levels of progression depending on each student’s projects.

Structure

A flexible and progressive course

The four e∙sense themes are structured in a semi-adaptive course. In other words, there is a suggested progression, but with enough flexibility to adapt to the needs or interests of the student.


The first step in the program is to take courses in the Territorial Impacts theme, which introduces the cross-cutting dimensions of energy: society, economy, environment …

Territorial Impacts

  • Economy
  • Society
  • Environment...

… then giving access to the three other themes:

Sustainable Transformation

  • Photovoltaic
  • Wind power
  • Piezoelectric

Storage Sciences

  • Electrochemical
  • Hydrogen
  • Thermal electricity

Current and New Uses

  • IOT
  • Mobility
  • Buildings

Each theme offers courses organized into three levels:

Icone Blocs initations Introductory
Icone blocs avancés Advanced
Icone blocs experts expert

Students are free to choose their courses, subject to prerequisites. Two examples illustrate the flexibility of the program:

1.

Specializing in a theme

A student can take most of the courses in a single block to become an expert in their chosen field.

2.

Exploring the energy sector broadly

Another student may prefer to take introductory-level courses in several blocks to gain a more cross-cutting view of the energy field.
