About this course

The liberalization and re-regulation of network industries and infrastructures across the world creates a need for industries and public institutions to hire skilled professionals capable of understanding these processes and participating actively in their management and regulation. In this regard, the EMIN master aims primarily to convey:

Knowledge: to train highly-qualified professionals able to understand the technological and economic principles of network industries, by delivering an interdisciplinary curriculum that combines engineering and economics courses, adapted to the students' varying backgrounds.
Skills: to provide students with the necessary competences to efficiently apply this knowledge, and to manage and re-regulate network industries in a dynamic, international and evolving framework, whether as in-house staff, on consulting teams, in public bodies such as ministries or development or regulatory agencies, or in research institutions.
Attitudes: to encourage students to work in a multicultural framework, bearing in mind the economic, environmental and social dimensions of network industries management to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs.
The attainment of all these objectives calls for an interdisciplinary approach, academic excellence and experience on the part of the partners involved, and fluent industry connections.

The selection of EMIN students will be based on the excellence of their studies.
