This DESS (postgraduate specialized diploma) in telecommunications networks prepares engineers to design, deploy, and manage telecommunications and network infrastructure for organizations. The 30-credit program combines two mandatory workshops with specialization coursework, including a pathway of five specialization courses (15 credits) plus a 15-credit project, alongside alternative course-only configurations. Topics cover network architecture, telecommunications systems, network security, and related technical subjects. Courses are delivered on campus during the day, evening, and in some intensive formats, with full-time and part-time study available. The normal duration is four semesters full-time or eight semesters part-time, with a maximum of five and ten semesters respectively. Instruction is in French, with course materials drawing extensively on English-language sources. Students meeting the required grade threshold may transfer credits toward a related Master's in Engineering program.
