FEI Industrial/Electrical/Mechanical Engineering / Icam’s Master in General Engineering
Program at a glance
Students following the dual degree program between Icam and the Centro Universitário da FEI – Fundação Educacional Inaciana (FEI) will have the generalist engineering foundations while having thorough knowledge either in Industrial/Electrical/Mechanical Engineering (depending on your specialization).
Icam’s 2-year Master’s in General Engineering will ensure a holistic formation: you will acquire management and humanities exposure, while expanding your training to the multidisciplinary engineering domains. These skills will then be applied when you carry out research work for your Master’s Thesis, followed by hands-on experience as an intern with one of our French partner companies (although you can choose to do your internship in India or any other country).
The General Engineering Master’s degree creates engineers ideal for either becoming self-proclaimed entrepreneurs or valuable leaders or players within a company.
Candidates with a dual degree in general engineering have increased operational skills. The generalist engineering training develops open-mindedness, adaptability, and critical thinking. These profiles are able to piece different elements of a puzzle together while having a bird’s eye-view of real-life situations. Used to complexity and different industries, general engineers can easily work in different industries and are able to reorient themselves and their careers to various environments.
