Responding to the biggest transformations of the 21st century
The diversity of expertise and the synergy of its schools enables IMT to deploy a group dynamic in order to respond in a systematic way to the challenges created by the biggest transformations of the 21st century:
- digital
- industrial
- energy
- educational
The schools contribute their expertise to IMT’s work, covering issues such as smart cities, health, personal autonomy or the industry of the future.
Industry of the Future
IMT is a founding member of the Alliance for the Industry of the Future, which brings together professional federations, research bodies and higher education institutions. Its objective is to make France a leader in the new global industrial generation. IMT also founded the Franco-German Academy for the Industry of the Future with the Technische Universität München.
Research, innovation and support for business development
IMT stimulates the production of value-creating research: every year, 60 patents are filed and 2,080 Grade A publications contribute to scientific progress.
IMT supports innovation and business development: every year, around 80 start-ups are born out of the schools’ incubators.
Geared towards businesses, IMT’s partnership-based research feeds the economy: it is recognized by two Carnot institute certifications (M.I.N.E.S and Carnot Télécom & société numérique) which were awarded in 2006 and renewed in 2011.
Educational Transition: a cooperative approach between the IMT schools in order to transform its teaching models.
IMT and its schools are an important driver in the creation of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) in French and English, notably in the domains of telecommunications, digital technology and engineering sciences.
By dovetailing their expertise and know-how in innovative teaching methods, IMT’s schools now enjoy a wide range of representative training programs.
These courses are fully integrated into the programs offered by IMT’s schools, for example:
- Initial common core training
- Educational experience in “flipped classrooms”
- Validating the ECTS in retakes or additional teaching
- Providing students with the opportunity to access cross-disciplinary and complementary themes
Closely linked to IMT’s strategy, the MOOCs also contribute to the growth and renown of the group and its schools both in France and across the world.
International
As a global key player with an international outlook, IMT attracts students from across borders (33% of students enrolled on its courses at Master’s or PhD level are from abroad) whilst also sending its students to the best foreign universities.
In order to expand the number of non-Francophone students on their campuses and to boost the international exposure of their students, IMT’s schools have developed a range of courses taught in English.
These programs are an opportunity for students to mix with top-level professors from the Institute’s international partners and to interact with Professor-Researchers from all over the world. Visits from guest professors within the framework of these programs are often a catalyst for collaborative research dynamics.
IMT
IMT is a public institution dedicated to higher education and research for innovation.
It is a key player in the fusion of science, engineering and digital technology, and takes its schools’ skills into the major fields of transformation in digital technology, industry, energy and the environment as well as their impact on the industry of the future, cities, health, and autonomy.
