UTT graduates majoring in Materials Science and Technology (MTE) benefit from a pluridisciplinary training in scientific, technological, economic and environmental fields. They play a key role at service interfaces. Their mission consists of dimensioning, characterizing, selecting and implementing materials, with an overarching approach to comply with industrial and social constraints.
UTT-MTE offers 3 specialties focusing on processing matter, ranging from procurement/purchasing to transformation and recycling
- Economics of materials and the environment (EME) : implementing eco-design, material life cycle analysis and recycling to prioritise environment compliance for manufacturing processes.
- Material and component technology and trade (TCMC) : controlling choice and use of materials in a given economic environment taking into account technological and economic constraints.
- Material transformation and quality assessment (TQM) : developing innovative materials (composites, nanomaterials, surface treatment compounds) thanks to proficiency in regard to physico-chemical properties of materials.
