Students must complete a 6-month internship that can take place anywhere in the world. The first job experience will be counted as internship experience. The subject of this professional internship is proposed by the company to solve current issues they are facing related to the environment, energy or sustainable development.
For the student, this is a chance to further develop his/her previous curriculum and to use recently acquired skills from the Advanced Master's program by successfully carrying out a meaningful internship in an international, professional setting.
The professional internship can be done as a classical internship, a "French International Internship Program" (V.I.E), or by industrial partnership.
Students are required to write a research-oriented thesis. It must call on the student's analytical and global mindset and allow him/her to implement structural and methodological thought. The field is wide open; the subject can be of a scientific, technological, technical-economic, legal, or sociological nature.
In the case of the double degree, students will defend their theses twice at MINES ParisTech graduate School and Tsinghua University.
