history
SIGMA Clermont was officially founded on January 1st, 2016. It emerged from the merger of the École Nationale Superiéure de Chimie de Clermont-Ferrand (ENSCCF), founded in 1908, and the Institut Français de Mécanique Avancée (IFMA), founded in 1991 .
The university is located on the “Les Cézeaux” technology campus in the south of Clermont-Ferrand.
Education
After passing the entrance exams, students at SIGMA Clermont can study two different diploma courses (M.Sc.). There are different compulsory specialization options:
- Diploma in chemistry
- Specialization in fine and industrial organic chemistry (pharmaceutical chemistry and extraction of natural substances)
- Immersion in high-performance materials
- Specialization in chemical engineering
- Degree in engineering
- Specialization in machines, mechanical systems and mechanisms
- Specialization in materials science
- Specialization in industrial systems and logistics (industrial engineering)
International issues, aircraft construction or business start-ups can be chosen as additional specializations.
In addition to the two diploma courses, SIGMA Clermont offers the Innomech master's course (M2, M.Sc.) for students with a qualifying bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, industrial engineering or physics, which entitles them to pursue a doctoral degree. It offers the following compulsory specialization options:
- Winter semester: intensive specialist studies in the areas of robotics, plant engineering and materials science
- Summer semester: 6-month research project or industrial internship (or traineeship program lasting several months, which also leads to a master’s degree after six months)
Cooperation with the German-speaking area
The university maintains numerous connections to numerous universities and companies in German-speaking countries. There are also active research collaborations with various Fraunhofer institutes .
