A new Erasmus Mundus Master to open at Centrale Nantes: Electric Vehicle Propulsion and Control, E-PiCo
Centrale Nantes has been selected by the European Commission to coordinate a new Erasmus Mundus Joint Master's Degree, entitled Electric Vehicle Propulsion and Control – E-PiCo, accredited in 2019 for 6 years.
on September 2, 2019
The E-PiCo programme has been jointly designed, and is implemented and fully supported, by 4 major partners all European degree awarding higher education institutions:
The E-PiCo Consortium benefits from associated partners that bring extra European and industrial perspectives:
E-PiCo will be the first European programme providing technical and scientific solutions to the issues of fossil fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, directly applicable in industry, by training future electric propulsion system expert graduates.
E-PiCo offers academic and industrial training across the whole span of the electric propulsion system (charging optimization, energy management, battery life cycle, power electronics system, power train control, performance improvement) with the technological specialization of the associated corporations and universities. All course units of E-PiCo - naturally taught in English – are already mutually recognized by the all consortium partners: the mandatory programme courses across the first 3 semesters will cover all propulsion system organs and applications.
