PhD Track – Energy Consumption Decrease

One of the most effective ways to combat global warming and climate change is to reduce energy consumption. However, this cannot be achieved at the cost of a dramatic reduction in economic well-being, while the human population is expected to continue growing at a rapid rate in future years. This five-year PhD Track aims to train future researchers and engineers in the energy sector capable of facing the necessity of improving the energy efficiency in industries as well as in domestic applications. It starts with a two-year period with advanced courses on the physical principles and engineering challenges of efficient energy conversion and storage. Students also participate in research projects carried out by IP Paris Laboratories involved in the Track and attend seminars on climate protection and energy efficiency. Supervised by experienced researchers at the forefront of research on new energy usages, they thus benefit from first-class research experience. At the end of the second year, the students who meet the academic requirements receive a Master Degree. Those who have achieved outstanding results and identified a thesis subject and a supervisor in one of the involved Labs are allowed to start a three-year PhD program.
