Professionalization

It takes several forms:

  • the involvement of numerous health professionals throughout the training program
  • numerous internships (up to a minimum of 14 months for the complete Bachelor's/Master's curriculum), complemented by case studies and personal projects, often directly linked to the professional world.
  • advanced training council
  • strong ties with LEEM
  • alumni association (AAEISM)

Advanced Training Council

The Conseil de Perfectionnement, made up largely of professionals, meets at the end of each academic year.

The Master's Board is currently chaired by Mr David FAGUET (SANOFI Montpellier). The board includes 12 professionals, industrial experts in each of the professional sectors covered by the course, and the Master's management. Members of the teaching staff (course leader, teaching engineer and PASTs), the administrative team, the head of the Faculty of Pharmacy and representatives of the alumni association are invited to attend.

It actively contributes to :

  • adapt training to changes in the professions targeted by the Healthcare Engineering course
  • find out about emerging trades
  • readjust industrial conferences and seminars to be scheduled
  • evaluate and comment on training indicators (number of applications received, success rate, internship follow-up, professional integration)

Office

The Health Engineering Master's teaching team operates as an office that meets once or twice a month, with the aim of:

  • training management, validation of academic calendars and examination procedures
  • setting up examination and selection boards
  • implementation of modifications suggested by the advanced training council
  • reflection and development of new models
  • partnership coordination: Remis, Morocco
  • validation of exceptional events organized by the training organization

The office is made up of the Head of the Master's program, the Director of Studies and the course leaders.

Teaching staff

The teaching staff comes from both university and professional backgrounds:

  • teaching and research staff at the University of Montpellier
  • part-time associate professionals (PAST). Their dual skills make them a particularly effective link between the academic and professional worlds.
  • speakers, professionals and academic specialists.

And then there are the internship and apprenticeship supervisors, whose role is particularly decisive.

The Health Engineering program has established international partnerships with schools and universities in Europe and the Mediterranean Arc.
