Presentation
Train engineers in Embedded Electronic Systems who master the latest technologies in electronics, computing and communications, and their integration into the intelligent real-time embedded systems of the future. A sandwich course, it is open to apprenticeships and continuing education.
"After obtaining my DUT GEII, I wanted to develop my technical skills so that my profile would be of interest to design office managers. So I chose ENSEIRB-MATMECA to get closer to my ideal of expert engineer, whom I had met during an end-of-study internship. This training gave me all the keys I needed to propose innovative solutions to my team. It also enabled me to understand the profit objectives of companies, which sometimes challenge the 'dreamer-tinkerer' that I am."
