Internship

This industrial internship will be supervised by the 2 institutions. It will be assessed based on 3 criteria: project management, technical merits and an internship report.

An international program

The creation of this double Master in Marine Engineering, Surface Ships and Submarines follows the launch of Naval Group’s building program for 12 submarines.

The double degree agreement was signed on May 2, 2018, in Sydney (Australia) by Pascal Pinot, Director of ENSTA Bretagne and Peter Rathjen, Vice-Chancellor and President of the University of Adelaide, in the presence of the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, and Australian Prime Minister, Malcolm Turnbull.

Designing complex naval systems

This is a 3-semester program including 2 academic semesters conducted in France and in Australia with courses taught in English (refer to the program description above). The aim is to train students to become marine engineering specialists.

Launched in September 2018 with 5 French students and 5 Australian students, this program is a partnership between two institutions renowned for their expertise in this field.
