Inter-establishment technical resource centers

The A.I.P. (Inter-Establishment Production Engineering Workshops), regional resource centres created are used as an experimental support for high-level training in the Industrial Automation field; PRIMECA (Computing Resouce Centres for Mechanical Engineering), promote the use of computing tools in the design of mechanical products and establish training programmes in Computer-Aided Mechanical Design.

The network is designed to contribute towards federating higher education establishments and working on the triple theme of Training. Research and industry to favour a better visibility for our mechanical and industrial automation courses, both nationality and internationality.
 
Organised around resource units, 10 local centres stimulate training and research in Integrated Mechanical Design and Industrial Automation. The association of pedagogical and scientific skills gives rise to a training and research environment around the themes of integrated engineering, furthering interdisciplinary project-based training for the future managers of the industrial world. Here research is transferred to the worlds of teaching and business, using industrial-strength equipment and software.
