Master Génie civil – Innovations in Civil Engineering (GMS) at Centrale Lille

Master 2 in civil engineering taught in English, giving high-level scientific and technical training in the mechanics of geomaterials (rocks, soils, concrete), modelling of civil engineering structures and environmental geotechnics. It prepares for a doctorate or for R&D roles.

Faculty: Centrale Lille Institut, co-accredited with the University of Lille  |  Department: Génie civil  |  Duration: 1 year (Master 2)  |  Study mode: full-time (taught in English)  |  Location: Villeneuve-d'Ascq, Hauts-de-France, France

What you will study

A compulsory core in the first semester comprises advanced numerical methods in geomechanics and constitutive laws of geomaterials (50 hours each), alongside modules such as soil-structure interaction and mechanics of porous media.

Career pathways

Graduates may become teachers or researchers, design or R&D engineers in building, public works, environment, petroleum engineering or renewable energy; a majority pursue a doctoral thesis.
