Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• Implement an engineering approach dealing with a set problem taking into account technical, economic and environmental constraints
• Understand the stages of an engineering approach
• Design, evaluate and optimise solutions addressing the problem
• Implement a chosen solution in the form of a drawing, a schema, a plan, a model, a prototype, software and/or digital model
• Communicate the approach, results and prospects to a client or a board
• Identify and acquire the information and skills needed to solve the problem
• Understand the theoretical and methodological fundamentals in science and engineering to solve problems involving these disciplines
• Select and rigorously apply knowledge, tools and methods in sciences and engineering to solve problems involving these disciplines
• Understand the fundamentals of project management to carry out a set project, individually or as part of a team
• Ensure a project is tracked and documented according to its specifications
• Adapt the approach and achievements taking into account the feedback received
• Respect deadlines and timescales
• Collaborate, work in a team
• Interact effectively with other students to carry out collaborative projects.
• Identify and appropriately implement the different ways of working in a group
• Communicate in a structured way - both orally and in writing, in French and English - giving clear, accurate, reasoned information
• Argue to and persuade customers, teachers and a board both orally and in writing
• Use several methods of written and graphic communication: text, tables, equations, sketches, maps, graphs, etc.
• Give an effective oral presentation, using presentation materials appropriately
• Demonstrate thoroughness and independence throughout their studies
• Develop their scientific curiosity and open-mindedness
• Learn to use various resources made available to inform and train independently

Learning Outcomes of UE

Act as an engineer to propose a practical solution to a multidisciplinary and integrated problem in the field of engineering sciences, work efficiently as part of a team, respect deadlines, organise the time in the framework of a long term project, communicate project results

UE Content: description and pedagogical relevance

Objectives
* Studying a multidisiplinary problem linked with the learning modules proposed in BAB3. Students work by groups and choose a topic in a project list supplied by Poly(tech Mons and ULB academics (i.e. the project supervisors)
* Typical deliverables: 
Hardware or software prototype, feasibility study, etc.
Written report (a final report and an intermediate one)
Oral presentation

Organisation
* Meetings with project supervisors on demand 
* Mandatory Formal meetings scheduled during the semester with a Project Advisory Board (3 to 4 checkpoints in general). Non-justified absence automatically leads to exclusion from the final evaluation. These intermediate evaluations are not graded and only serve as follow-up points and feedback moments. 
* Intermediate report submitted via Moodle mid-semester. This report is not evaluated and is formative, but the Advisory Board may apply a penalty on the final marks if that intermediate report is not prepared seriously.
