Master Mecanique

Tuition is 250 EUR per year.

Université Claude Bernard - Lyon 1 offers a Master Mecanique in Villeurbanne, a two-year program in mechanics taught in French. Mechanics as a discipline studies the behavior of physical systems under forces, covering subjects such as solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, dynamics, and materials behavior, often with applications to engineering problems. Typical coursework includes subjects like structural analysis, vibration and dynamics, fluid flow, and computational methods used to model mechanical systems, giving students a strong grounding in both the theoretical and applied sides of the field. Depending on the specific options within the program, students may focus more on solid mechanics and structures or on fluid mechanics and thermal systems. Graduates of mechanics programs commonly move into engineering roles across industries such as aerospace, automotive, energy, and manufacturing, working on tasks like structural design, simulation, and testing of mechanical systems and components. The strong theoretical foundation typical of mechanics programs also makes graduates well positioned for research roles or further doctoral study for those interested in more academic or research-focused careers. The program starts in September and runs for two years, with instruction delivered entirely in French, so applicants should have strong French language skills together with an undergraduate background in physics, mechanics, or engineering. Yearly tuition is 250 EUR. Based in Villeurbanne, part of the greater Lyon metropolitan area, the program is set within a well-established French academic and research environment. Prospective students should be comfortable with advanced mathematics and physics, since mechanics coursework relies heavily on both.
