Master of Science in Innovation and Creative Technology De Vinci Higher Education - ESILV - Ecole Superieure d Ingenieurs Leonard de Vinci, France

This MSc program targets engineering or design students aiming to bridge the gap between research, innovation and manufacturing in a transdisciplinary environment. You will learn to apply various methods and advanced technologies in order to develop your hard skills, autonomy and critical abilities in a dynamic and motivational work environment.

Inspired by the MIT Media Lab leitmotif Demo or Die, you will maintain an operational project demonstration. You will learn how to develop iteratively with Agile methods, demonstrate your work, and pitch at any time. Each student is part of an innovative group led by a Principal Investigator who accompany your work on a daily basis.

Our courses are designed based on three alternative pedagogy frameworks: radical learning, antidisciplinarity and collective intelligence, and aim to enhance student autonomy, initiative and responsibility. Radical learning consists of confronting the learner with the experience before assimilation of theory to focus his attention on the issues. Anti-disciplinarity is an approach consisting of alternating the different areas of learning to increase the diversity of knowledge to strengthen creativity. Finally, collective intelligence is an emerging phenomenon where the community carries dynamics and creativity through social interactions.
