Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Imagine, design, develop, and implement conceptual models and computer solutions to address complex problems including decision-making, optimisation, management and production as part of a business innovation approach by integrating changing needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
    • Identify complex problems to be solved and develop the specifications with the client by integrating needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
    • On the basis of modelling, design a system or a strategy addressing the problem raised; evaluate them in light of various parameters of the specifications.
  • Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out computer and management engineering missions, using their expertise and adaptability.
    • Master and appropriately mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques specific to computer management engineering.
  • Plan, manage and lead projects in view of their objectives, resources and constraints, ensuring the quality of activities and deliverables.
    • Define and align the project in view of its objectives, resources and constraints.
  • Work effectively in teams, develop leadership, and make decisions in multidisciplinary, multicultural and international contexts.
    • Interact effectively with others to carry out common projects in various contexts (multidisciplinary, multicultural, and international).
  • Communicate and exchange information in a structured way - orally, graphically and in writing, in French and in one or more other languages - scientifically, culturally, technically and interpersonally, by adapting to the intended purpose and the relevant public.
    • Argue to and persuade customers, teachers and boards, both orally and in writing.
    • Select and use the written and oral communication methods and materials adapted to the intended purpose and the relevant public.
  • Adopt a professional and responsible approach, showing an open and critical mind in an independent professional development process.
    • Show an open and critical mind by bringing to light technical and non-technical issues of analysed problems and proposed solutions.
  • Contribute by researching the innovative solution of a problem in engineering sciences.
    • Communicate, in writing and orally, on the approach and its results in highlighting both the scientific criteria of the research conducted and the theoretical and technical innovation potential, as well as possible non-technical issues.

Learning Outcomes of UE

Integrated software development project dedicated to Internet of Things, connected objects and their use, with the following goals: 
- Develop an application dedicated for managing data generated from connected objects by processing the entire pipeline from data collection to storage.
- Using sensors and connected objects within the software development project.
- Using wireless communication protocols dedicated to connected objects in the field of Internet of things.
- Studying the security of connected objects.
- The project could be dedicated a specific use case related to connected objects in the field of IoT.
- Study of the optimization of computer programs and data storage in order to reduce the digital environmental impact.

UE Content: description and pedagogical relevance

 Getting started with using sensors and their connectivity with embedded devices such as Arduino, Lopy, Raspberry Pi, etc.
- Studying and using wireless communication protocols (and possibly wired) used for sensors information transmission.
- Build a dashboard allowing to monitor and analyze data from different connected objects. This dashboard should be cross-platform (Web/Desktop/Mobile).
- Implement an actuation policy used to control the status of certain connected objects according to the data received from sensors (for example: electrical appliances, electric doors or windows, heaters, etc.)
- Identify a backup strategy with different kind of databases.
- Study and possibly implement the security of connected objects and their related data.
- Green Computing for the reduction of environmental impact.
