MDE - Model Driven Engineering

MDE – Post-Master’s Specialisation in Model Driven Engineering for Software Management - Courses in english

Head of Program: Ass. Prof Jordi Cabot – Jordi.CABOT@emn.fr

Model Driven Engineering (MDE) is changing the way we build, we operate, and we maintain our software-intensive systems.

Software models are being increasingly used in most areas of computer science. They allow working at a higher abstraction level and generating the executable programming code only at final implementation stages.

MDE provides a new conceptual framework and a set of tools to separate and to combine the multiple aspects and views present in modern complex systems.

Several projects using MDE practices are reporting significant improvements in quality and performance. But the technical and human skills necessary to handle these projects are currently not widely available.

This Post-Master Diploma intends to contribute filling this gap

Objective:

To train engineers to manage complex projects in various IT fields
with the latest cutting-edge modeling technologies.

One semester of academic coursework (360 hours) at the EMN combined with seminars, regular visits to successful MDE deployment sites, and group projects.

A six-month internship with a company or a lab to become an internal expert and solve industrial issues with MDE solutions.

Start of Program: March 1st 2010.

Language of Instruction: English

The MDE Diploma corresponds to a Bac+6 level according to the French Higher Education System.
