Master 2 EEET

M2 – Economics of Transport and Mobility

Presentation of the course

This training course covers all issues relating to the decarbonisation of transport and new forms of mobility, from the perspective of more global, societal, climatic and natural resource (biodiversity) issues through economic aspects, with an analytical dimension (modelling) and a prospective dimension.

Fundamental courses with a research focus will provide the conceptual and theoretical elements to achieve these objectives. Thematic courses focusing on practical issues and their management in various sectors (new energies, smart mobility, etc.) allow students to integrate different professional environments with the necessary perspective to exercise a management function.
