Carnot Institute ARTS

The Carnot Institute ARTS (Actions for Research, Technology and Society; Actions de Recherche pour la Technologie et la Société) is a French research institute. It was originally created to group the 15 laboratories of the engineering school Arts et Métiers ParisTech. It received the Carnot label in 2006.

Creation
ARTS was among the first 20 institutes to be certified by the French Minister of higher education and research.

Laboratories
The laboratories are spread in the 8 centers of teaching and research of Arts et Métiers ParisTech. Some of them have satellite facilities in the 3 institutes of research of Arts et Métiers ParisTech and in the buildings of research partners like CNAM or école navale.

Departments
The laboratories are organized in 3 departments:


 * Design, Industrialization, Risk, Decision (CIRD)
 * Mechanics, Materials, Processes (M2P)
 * Fluids and Energy (FISE)
