A Project Unmatched Across Europe
| ARTEM is an innovative and original alliance project in which the three elite learning institutions in Nancy came together around the concept "Art, Technology and Management : the National School of Mining, the Nancy Business School and the National School of Art". |
 | Having observed that success is increasingly dependent on the triumvirate "the ability to create, the ability to industrialise and the ability to manage and sell", the alliance invites the engineers, managers and artists of the future to work and create together, starting today.
The three schools will soon be joined by the Institute of Corporate Administration (IAE) and a contemporary art centre, where students will be able to exhibit their work, alongside established artists.
Ultimately, over 2,500 students, 600 instructors, researchers and administrative staff will work on the new campus.
New Inter-disciplinary Research
ARTEM is also a place for developing research activities : it is home to five joint materials research units at CNRS, Henri Poincaré University and the National Polytechnical Institute of Lorraine (INPL), and is an experimental platform of international dimension.
New multi-disciplinary research units, in fields ranging from economy to knowledge engineering, risk and uncertainty analysis and management, or design, media and technological arts, are currently emerging at INERIS (specialised in industrial risk), INRIA and CNRS.
A Network of Companies and Universities
ARTEM takes part in networks of schools and laboratories the world over, and develops relationships with socio-economic and cultural fields. EDF, Renault, Clarion, Lafarge and SNVB (regional bank at CIC Group) and IBM are all members o the Artem Enterprises association and are providing their financial backing for the project.
Alongside that, a research networks is being built with universities like MIT, in the United States, or KZM in Karlsruhe, Germany.
When a City Reconquers its Military Heritage
ARTEM is not only an innovative academic project. It is also a major urban and architectural project at the heart of Greater Nancy.
Looking for new space, the Urban Community of Greater Nancy had a broad appraisal of its available military sites performed. The Molitor and Manutention barracks, offering eight hectares of land and tramway access, proved ideally suited to the ARTEM project's deployment.
The site will be transformed by the Lorraine Public Land Establishment : the three main buildings around Place d’Armes and the Molitor Barracks will remain as they are today, as well a dozen other buildings, as long as the final construction project is not unveiled. At the same time, 15 old non-descript buildings are being demolished.
With a new roadway, due to cut through the site, it will open up to Greater Nancy. Housing programmes are also planned.
The etablishment of ARTEM and the arrival of a young and active population will make a significant contribution to the urban redesign of the district, currently occupied mainly by housing. |
