Why choose the Health and Technology major in the ECE engineering curriculum?
Engineering is not confined to any particular sector. It is also possible to build bridges between disciplines and fields, so that they can feed off each other.
With this in mind, ECE has designed the Health and Technology major, accessible in the 4th year of the Grand École Ingénieur program. This major is aimed at students wishing to apply their engineering skills to the medical profession. This is a unique training program, as it enables budding engineers to gain a better understanding of healthcare systems in France and abroad, and to collaborate with healthcare professionals.
Finally, students are encouraged to propose innovative solutions to improve patient care. It’s a rich training program where technology is put to work for people and improving their daily lives.
What is the Health and Technology program?
Combining the healthcare and new technology sectors, ECE’s Health and Technology major enables us to better understand and support the needs of patients/users.
This training includes the following courses:
- Anatomy and physiology
- Biomechanics, robotics and prosthetics
- Medical imaging
- Biological signals and instrumentation
- Disability
- Computer-assisted surgery, neuroscience and implants
- Cellular neurobiology
- Medical devices, healthcare information systems, security
- AI & health data
What is the diploma obtained after completing the Health and Technology major in the ECE engineering curriculum?
This program leads to a 5-year engineering degree. Please note that ECE is an engineering school accredited by the Commission des titres d’ingénieurs. It therefore meets the most demanding requirements for training engineers, whatever their sector of activity.
The master’s degree awarded by ECE is also registered with the RNCP.
What are the career prospects for the Health and Technology major?
Unique and professionalizing, the Health and Technology major provides training for a wide range of professions. For example, it allows you to specialize in :
- design and optimization of disability assistance tools
- design of health-related connected objects
- innovation and maintenance of major equipment
You can also become a Health Information Systems Engineer.
A number of companies are partners in the training program, including Institut Pasteur, CNRS, GE Healthcare andInserm.
What are the admission requirements for the Health and Technology major in the ECE engineering curriculum?
The Health and Technology major is accessible in the 4th year of higher education. You can join after completing the first three years of the ECE Grande École Engineering Program. You can also join this major after a bac+3 in science.
Is it possible to study abroad while choosing the Health and Technology major?
ECE encourages the international mobility of its students. This gives you the opportunity to go abroad during your Grande École program. In 5th year, you can do an internship or study abroad. In the latter case, depending on the course you choose, you may have the opportunity to prepare a double degree.
