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
    • 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
    • Identify, describe and explain basic scientific and mathematical principles
    • Identify, describe and explain the basic principles of engineering particularly in their specialising field
    • Understand laboratory techniques: testing, measuring, monitoring protocol, and security
    • Select and rigorously apply knowledge, tools and methods in sciences and engineering to solve problems involving these disciplines
  • Collaborate, work in a team
    • Interact effectively with other students to carry out collaborative projects.
  • Communicate in a structured way - both orally and in writing, in French and English - giving clear, accurate, reasoned information
    • Use several methods of written and graphic communication: text, tables, equations, sketches, maps, graphs, etc.
    • Present analysis or experiment results in laboratory reports
  • Demonstrate thoroughness and independence throughout their studies
    • Identify the different fields and participants in engineering
    • Develop their scientific curiosity and open-mindedness
    • Learn to use various resources made available to inform and train independently

I-SEMI-021Total (2nd semester - June): 100%. The assessment of the course includes: Laboratory practical work (10% of the course grade); Out-of-session laboratory practical exam (40% of the course grade); Theoretical exam (50% of the course grade).
Additional comments introduced by the instructor: Laboratory practical work: individual questionnaire (MCQ) to be completed at the end of each laboratory session; sometimes an individual report on the results of the manipulations; Out-of-session laboratory practical exam: written exam (or individual MCQ questionnaire covering all laboratory sessions) and practical programming exam (programming exercise: solving a programming problem for one of the processors, tools, and programming languages used during the laboratory sessions), maximum of 20 students per group, to be completed at least 2 weeks after the last lab session; Theoretical exam: individual computer-based MCQ questionnaire during the exam session.
