Description of the programme

The train'ing is a place dedicated to the integration of Centralien engineers' skills, based on three main areas: scientific openness, societal and cultural openness and professional openness.
Concerning scientific openness, scientific activities are offered in connection with the components of the C1 (Scientific and technical innovation) and C2 (Mastery of complexity and systems) skills. These activities are spread out over 3 days (24 hours per student) around a theme by articulating different learning formats (practical work, experiments, visits, projects, workshops, etc).
The professional opening includes workshops for learning and practicing soft skills (agile communication and team management) as well as weeks dedicated to specific activities of the innovation project (ideation week and model realization week) evaluated by a jury.
Finally, the cultural and societal opening allows students to open up to disciplines such as the Humanities, the Arts and various fields of the Humanities and Social Sciences in order to develop their ability to appropriate other languages and to encourage their curiosity and creativity.
In addition, these training activities promote student awareness of major societal and environmental issues. In accordance with the institution's strategic axes, the proposed themes are based on the SDGs
