Key Summary
About: The Master in Sciences and Technologies for Energy at the Institut Polytechnique de Paris (IP Paris) unites six engineering schools, including École Polytechnique, École nationale des ponts et chaussées, ENSTA, ENSAE, Télécom and Télécom SudParis. Founded in May 2019, IP Paris builds on 200 years of expertise. The programme covers science and engineering for energy, renewable technologies, power systems and sustainability.
Career Outcomes: Graduates can work in energy engineering, power systems design, renewable project management, energy consultancy, research and development and technology innovation across industry, utilities, government and startups. Roles include energy engineer, systems analyst, R&D engineer, project manager and policy advisor.
The Energy program is designed for students interested in clean energy production, energy infrastructure management, energy use optimization, renewable energy, and offshore energy production. It provides students with advanced expertise in the energy sector.
The Energy major is a research-oriented program offering elective courses in physics, engineering, and applied mathematics, allowing students to specialize in clean energy, infrastructure management, or energy optimization.
Along similar lines, the Offshore Wind Energy (OFFWIND) major combines academic and professional training, preparing students for careers in the offshore wind sector through the joint expertise of ENSTA and ENPC.
Finally, the Energy Transition and Territories (TET) major complements this offering by focusing on the design and management of energy strategies that integrate technical, economic, and territorial dimensions to support the energy transition.
For students aiming to pursue a PhD after their master’s degree, the program is affiliated with a PhD track program for early research immersion in Energy for Climate. This PhD track program offers excellence scholarships and registration fee waivers.
