Overview

Presentation

Turning innovations into innovative products requires the control of industrial design processes for bringing to market within a reasonable time and price, while providing assurance of their quality and safety. Increasingly, quality and safety requirements also concern the manufacturing process. All these processes involve various human, managerial, technical and financial skills, taking the influence of many external constraints into account (regulatory, normative, legal, and societal, as well as technological).

Objectives

The Master of Science in Industrial and Safety Engineering aims to train specialists providing answers to these new industrial and societal expectations in an international context. At the end of the degree, the student will be able to manage the quality and the risks of technological systems (products and facilities) relating to their specification, their design, their implementation, their manufacturing and their operation, and to provide insurance of the actual quality and risk control in a legal, economic and social environment.

Accommodation

Students studying at INP-ENSIACET can apply for a CROUS student residence: cité universitaire de Rangueil (Tripodes) or résidence Daniel Faucher. Unfortunately, it cannot always ensure accommodation for all international students. However, several other accommodation options are available.

There are several possibilities of accommodation at INSA:

• The Crous residences
• The Promologis Group residences

The R1 CROUS-INSA residence: Centrally located on the campus of INSA Toulouse and offers 221 student rooms, which are attributed in priority to students enrolled at INSA on the basis of social criteria. Rents range from 189.50€ to 332.50€. To apply for this residence, please click here.
