His career before ISAE-SUPAERO

What was your academic background before joining ISAE-SUPAERO?

My academic career began with a bachelor’s degree in chemical sciences, which led to a master’s degree in chemistry and materials science under a sandwich course at the Université Paris-Saclay. This was combined with work experience as a production engineer in a chemical industry. My passion for aeronautics then made me want to combine materials science with the study and design of aeronautical structures. That’s why I chose this Advanced Master®.

Did you already have professional experience before the Advanced Master®?

Yes, before this Advanced Master®, I gained two years’ experience as an apprentice production engineer in a chemical industry. My main task was to identify the causes of a defect in the finished product. To do this, I was the link between the production team and the quality department.

Why did you choose ISAE-SUPAERO for your Advanced Master®?

I chose to pursue a Advanced Master® at ISAE-SUPAERO because of its strong focus on the aeronautical sector, which enabled me to deepen the link between materials science and aeronautical applications.

How did you hear about our Advanced Master® programme?

Via the ISAE-SUPAERO website.

His career at ISAE-SUPAERO

What specific skills or knowledge have you come to acquire in this AM?

By doing this AM, I wanted to acquire skills in structural calculations and mechanics. All these aspects were lacking in my previous courses.

What subjects, projects, challenges or experiences have particularly impressed you during your training?

During the course, we had to work on a 6-month project in a group of 9. This project was particularly memorable because it brought together people from a wide variety of backgrounds. So we had to learn to adapt to each other’s working methods, identify our strengths and areas for improvement, and work together effectively. The aim of the project was to use CAD software to design the interior of a hydrogen-powered aircraft. It was a real challenge, aimed at rethinking the standards of aviation as we know it.

In your opinion, what are the main advantages of the AM that you have followed?

This AM offers a number of advantages. Firstly, it benefits from the recognised academic excellence of ISAE-Supaero. The courses are taught by professionals from the sector, which brings a concrete and enriching dimension to the training. What’s more, we have an international intake made up of a small number of students, which makes it easier to forge links and discover new cultures.

His career plan

What are your career plans?

I hope to work in the aeronautical industry, as a methods or test engineer, which would enable me to link my theoretical knowledge of structures with the industrial aspect.

How will your Advanced Master® prepare you to achieve these goals?

The Advanced Master AES enabled me to develop my technical skills while developing an in-depth understanding of the industrial requirements of the sector. This training has given me the tools to make the link between the theoretical modelling of structures and their practical application. Working as a methods or test engineer gives me the ideal opportunity to put these skills into practice, by helping to improve industrial processes and validate aircraft structural performance.

Did you do a work placement or assignment as part of your AM?

As part of my Advanced Master®, I did an internship at Airbus in Toulouse as an industrial assembly engineer. This experience enabled me to develop project management skills as well as technical expertise in drilling processes.

His advice

What would you say to a future student who is hesitating about joining an ISAE-SUPAERO Advanced Master®?

Go for it!

The teaching staff are very helpful and available. The atmosphere among students is friendly and supportive. The school’s facilities provide an ideal working environment. The courses are of the highest quality. It’s an experience that’s as demanding as it is rewarding.

Any advice for a successful Advanced Master® at ISAE-SUPAERO?

Don’t be afraid to ask questions. The Master’s degree is intense, but super rewarding if you put your heart and soul into it.

ISAE-SUPAERO allowed me to dream big and build my dreams step by step.

If you had to sum up your experience in one word, three adjectives or one sentence?

Demanding, enriching and immersive.
