École doctorale Ingénierie pour la santé, la Cognition et l'Environnement

The ED ISCE aims to train students with a profile comparable to that of the bio-engineering and cognitive science departments of the major North American academic technology centres (MIT, Virginia Tech, etc.), in order to supply teachers-researchers, engineers, researchers, etc., to companies in information processing engineering for life, human-computer interaction, cognitive technologies, biotechnologies, etc:
- companies in information processing engineering for life, man-machine interaction, cognitive technologies, biotechnologies, etc.
- the more traditional pharmaceutical or instrumental companies,
- hospitals and clinics (psychologists, biomedical engineers, researchers),
- universities and large public institutions for fundamental and applied research (CNRS, INSERM, INRA, INRIA, etc.).

The doctoral school wants its students to acquire a dual culture:
- from disciplines with a strong formalism, such as mathematics and computer science,
- from disciplines with a strong experimental and clinical basis, such as cognitive sciences and life and health sciences.

4 Masters with a total of 12 research specialities are attached to the ED ISCE.

The ED ISCE is distinguished by its multidisciplinarity: it has many interfaces at the laboratory level.

It calls upon a vast scientific field organised into 5 major themes which constitute the thesis specialities of the ED ISCE.

It contributes to the training of doctoral students, provides them with follow-up and ensures that the doctoral charter is respected. It helps with the professional integration of doctoral students.

It is assisted by a Council and managed by a pedagogical Bureau.
