The aim of this master's is to train Computer Sciences and Information Technologies experts in order to be able to address the new challenges of the current and future generations of digital societies. Current trends in digital technologies represented by the Internet of things, cyber-physical systems, social networks, cloud computing, big data and cognitive computing, mobile robotics, digital twin, and additive manufacturing have provided the basis for a new industrial revolution named Industry 4.0.

Our Industry 4.0 Computer Sciences Master's degree offers a 1 year, full-time postgraduate program, aimed at providing solid scientific and technological foundations in order to innovate, design, and develop future digital organizations based on the new Smart Anything Everywhere (SAE) paradigm. It is suited for students planning both an academic or an industrial career and provides the theoretical basis and the practical expertise required to pursue research or R&D organizations.

The master's is fully taught in English providing a main core curriculum and two options named IT Digital Transformation and Digital Manufacturing.

This master's is hosted by the College of Sciences and Technologies for Energy and Environment (STEE) of the Université de Pau et des Pays de l’Adour (UPPA) in Anglet (France) as well as by The National Engineering School of Tarbes (ENIT) of the National Polytechnic Institute of Toulouse, in Tarbes (France).

This master is supported by the prestigious French Initiative of Excellence label I-SITE (Initiatives Sciences, Innovation, Territories, and Economy) obtained by the E2S-UPPA project and profits from the territorial synergy of the Aerospace industry located in the southwest valley of France.

The program is carried out in close collaboration with the Computer Sciences Laboratory of the UPPA (LIUPPA research laboratory) and with the Production Engineering Laboratory of the ENIT (LGP research laboratory) as well as several R&D organizations, where scientific and experimental practicals will be performed.

Students will also benefit from the global research environment and administrative support of the University Pau & Pays Adour, the ENIT, and the E2S I-site program.

Objectives

  • Prepare students at an advanced specialized level to meet present and future scientific and technological challenges in digital industries and enterprises.
  • Develop research skills to engage in quality and successful research,
  • Prepare students for leading positions in private and public organizations in research and development departments.

Tuition Fees and partial exemptions

Administrative tuition in France is determined at a national level. The French Ministerial Order of April 19, 2019, amended on June 9, 2020, sets university tuition for a Master's Program as follows: European nationals: €243, extra-European nationals: €3770.

For the academic year 2022-2023, the Board of Directors has extended its policy of automatically providing a partial reduction of these fees at the UPPA. As a result, extra-European nationals will be granted automatic partial reductions such that they will be able to pay the same enrollment fees as European nationals.

Extra fees: 

In addition to academic tuition, most students must pay a student body fee (CVEC, which cost €92 in 2020-2021). 

NB: Admitted candidates in any course of study who have taken a break of more than two years from their studies will enroll via the UPPA’s Continuing Education service (Formation Continue / FORCO). They are exempt from the CVEC, however, they may be subject to a different tuition scale.
