Master STAPS - Engineering and physical activity ergonomics # Course: Engineering and ergonomics of human movement

The aim of the Human Movement Engineering and Ergonomics (HMEE) pathway is to train people with expertise in the analysis of human movement for scientific research and industrial engineering, with the aim of integrating the user dimension (comfort, physiological and biomedical capabilities, cognitive aspects, etc.) into the design of materials and equipment;grate the user dimension (comfort, physiological and biomécanic capacities, cognitive aspects,...) in the design of equipment and/or in ergonomic intervention and/or for scientific research into human-machine interaction.

In particular, the training aims to à provide all the useful knowledge on human movement in its multidisciplinary dimension. It aims to provide the skills to experience, measure and analyse human movement using multidisciplinary tools (biomedical, physiological, cognitive neuroscience, etc.) and human and material modelling. These skills and knowledge will enable the student to assess and understand the user, the athlete, the patient and the task and performance performed. This understanding makes sense not only for fundamental research but also for research and development in order to optimise tools, sports equipment, workstations, motor performance and human-machine interfaces.

Master 1 : registration is carried out on the Mon Master platform

Master 2 : application form

Have validated a license.

Knowledge and skills in Human Movement Sciences, in particular in biomechanics, physiology and behavioral neurosciences. Knowledge and skills in physics and mathematics. Knowledge and skills in engineering and ergonomics.

The link between training and research (-company) is an essential part of the organization of the IEMH Master. In addition to the content of research methodology, the most recent knowledge of which feeds the courses offered, the training offers internships which can be carried out in the laboratory from the first year.

• Acquire knowledge and know-how to measure, analyze and model human movement
• Be able to design and propose innovative solutions to optimize HMIs, sports and medical equipment, performance, gerontechnology, ergonomics of objects and tasks
• Work in a team, manage projects, coordinate actors from various professions

Supervised projects:

Citation projects followed from M1 to M2.

Three afternoons per week devoted to the project in M1 (2 semesters) and two afternoons per week in the first semester of M2.

Project supervision by teachers 15h teachers/semester and per group of 5 à 6 étudiants

Intervention on projects by specialist teachers 5h/group per semester for 5 &eagrave; 6 different subjects, impacting projects.

Reports in French and English, supervision of work in English.

Internships :

Internship M1 : Réinvestment of the research démarche (2 months, laboratory or company).

M2 internship : Professional integration (6 months, laboratory or company).

Internships abroad possible.
