Presentation of the Connected & Autonomous Vehicle Major
The automobile is undergoing a revolution: Connected, Autonomous, Shared, Electrified. Mobility is growing and changing to become Multimodal or Intermodal. The customer is now at the heart of the connected vehicle. Data and Artificial Intelligence are generating many other services. These revolutions are disrupting organizations: new uses, new jobs. Technology and engineering are at the heart of these changes. ECE has created the Connected & Autonomous Vehicle Major to answer this need.
The Connected & Autonomous Vehicle major aims to train engineers to meet the technological challenges of the automotive sector. The Autonomous Vehicle training module is jointly produced by PSA & Renault. This collaboration is unique in France. ECE participates in the automotive investment plan.
