I. General Training Orientations


The Sino-European University of Technology of Shanghai (UTSEUS) is an international engineering institute that integrates the training philosophy of the generalist engineer from the French UT Group with the excellence engineer training model of Shanghai University. Leveraging Shanghai's cutting-edge disciplinary resources, it trains excellent engineers with an international vision and the ability to solve complex problems.


In line with Shanghai University's goal of becoming a world-class university and the training objectives of the UT Group, and strictly adhering to the accreditation criteria of the French Commission des Titres d'Ingénieur (CTI) and the requirements of the European EUR-ACE accreditation system, UTSEUS has adopted a localized training model consisting of "2 years of common core + 2 years of specialty foundation + 2.5 years of in-depth specialization." Thus, it has constructed an engineer training system integrating "Bachelor + Master." The training program fully combines engineering sciences, humanities and social sciences, languages, and management, ensuring that students become intercultural and international generalist engineers.


Upon completion of the program, students obtain a Bachelor's degree and a Master's degree from Shanghai University, as well as a Master's diploma from one of the three French Universities of Technology: the University of Technology of Compiègne (UTC), the University of Technology of Troyes (UTT), or the University of Technology of Belfort-Montbéliard (UTBM). After obtaining CTI accreditation, eligible students will also receive authorization to bear the title of CTI-certified Graduate Engineer. (Note: In the "2+2+2.5" dual-campus training model, students obtain the Bachelor's degree from Shanghai University and the Engineering Diploma or Master's degree from one of the three French universities).


The program stipulates that students must simultaneously meet Shanghai University's requirements for obtaining the Master's degree and those of the one French University of Technology to which they are affiliated for engineer training. Failure to meet any of these conditions results in the inability to obtain the corresponding degree.


II. Fundamental Training Cycle (Preparatory Cycle)


Students must first complete all modules of the four-year Bachelor's program and obtain the required credits. They may then access the engineer cycle after a selection process. Students not selected will obtain a Bachelor's degree from Shanghai University in one of the following three specialties, according to their entry track:

- Computer Engineering

- Mechanical Engineering

- Materials Science



III. Engineer Training Cycle


At the end of the fundamental training cycle, students enter the engineer training cycle (Professional Master's) either through recommendation and exam exemption or via the unified national Master's admission examination. UTSEUS training program, while satisfying the basic requirements of Shanghai University's Professional Master's, deeply integrates the characteristics and requirements of the UT Group's engineer training. In accordance with the agreement between Shanghai University and the UTs approved by the Chinese Ministry of Education, graduates of the Sino-European University of Technology, Shanghai University, receive a Master's degree in Mechatronics (Cyber-Physical Systems).


IV. Innovation Training System


The development of innovation capabilities is a key element of the training. To systematically improve students' innovative skills, UTSEUS allocates a dedicated budget for innovative practical projects to each student and requires every student to publish at least one high-level research paper or file a patent during their studies. Furthermore, UTSEUS organizes multi-level activities, such as student innovation and entrepreneurship training programs and various scientific and technological competitions, to comprehensively cultivate students' research and innovation capabilities.
