ESITC Caen International Workshops: an original pedagogical tool for learning to collaborate internationally.

Open to foreign students, it confronts multidisciplinary and multicultural teams with projects resulting from real calls for tenders. During one month, the different teams build their dossiers. They benefit from comprehensive pedagogical support - including tutoring, specialised theoretical courses and conferences - provided by ESITC Caen teams and professionals who are experts in the sectors concerned. 

Students from all over the world are also offered technical visits to prestigious sites such as the Mont Saint Michel dam and the terminals in the port of Le Havre...

• Offshore Renewable Energy and Aquaculture - Offshore renewable and aquaculture: the call for projects concerns the construction of a salmon aquaculture farm in a floating structure on the Brittany and Normandy coasts with an obligation to be energetically self-sufficient.
• Renewable constructions - Sustainable building engineering: the call for tender concerns the renovation and extension of a building in Le Havre and its conversion into a cultural space. The projects must take into account specific aspects such as accessibility, energy efficiency and the atmosphere of the original building.
• Ingénierie portuaire et travaux - Port engineering and maritime works: the aim here is to work on the development of the port of Cherchell East (Algeria). In addition to the need to set up a new container port, the candidates have to deal with the constraints linked to the preservation of the original archaeological site.
