Presentation

The aim of the multimedia and networks computing block release course is to enhance the skills of computer engineers who specialise in the converging fields of data technology, multimedia and communications with a view to developing new services relating to internet and multimedia applications.

Skillsets are developed within 5 core areas: computing, multimedia, networks, mathematics and social sciences, applications and services. These areas of focus combine to cover the computer development needs associated with multimedia and networks. In the second year, students can choose the “cybersecurity” option to deepen their knowledge in the field.

At the conclusion of the training course, the apprentices are computer engineers specialised in multimedia development:

sound and image technologies
application analysis
service design

They have the highly-developed knowledge of networks required to successfully convert multimedia data throughout the public domain.

Acquired skills

Methods and tools in computer development
Analysis and anticipation of new uses of the web and mobile technologies
Computer systems and networks
Broad understanding of multimedia data specifics (modeling, storage, transport, processing)
Design and management of service development projects integrating aspects of ergonomics, design, marketing, etc.

Who can apply ?

If you wish to join the Computer Engineer by Apprenticeship programme, Cybersecurity, data and multimedia science, artificial intelligence, you must hold:

A BUT in Computer Science
A BUT in Networks & Telecommunications
A BUT in Multimedia and Internet Professions
A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science
A BTS in Digital Systems, with a specialisation in computer and networks

This programme is directly accessible in the second year for students holding a first year of a master’s degree in computer science.

The programme is also open to continuing education.

Work-study programme

The work-study programme corresponds to three years of work, both at the School and in a company. The apprentice is gradually placed in situations of responsibility and autonomy, their activity in the company strengthens and becomes increasingly important in their curriculum.

In more detail, the work-study programme for computer engineering entails:

1800 hours of academic teaching
Approximately 3000 hours in a company, including:
- Five professional periods of over two months on average
- One stay abroad
- A final engineering project

International Mobility

Enssat offers engineering students the opportunity to gain international experience in a European, North or South American, or Asian country. As a partner of numerous foreign institutions within international exchange programmes, the School promotes student mobility for academic courses and/or pre-professional internships. Conversely, the School welcomes students from partner foreign universities. All Enssat engineering students must acquire international experience during their course of study.

International mobility can currently take the form of:

A spring semester in M1 at a partner university
A 2 to 3-month internship at the end of the 1st or 2nd year or a 5-month final-year internship (April – August)
