Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Implement an engineering approach dealing with a set problem taking into account technical, economic and environmental constraints
    • Identify and describe the problem to be solved and the functional need (of prospective clients) to be met considering the state of technology
    • 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
    • Select and rigorously apply knowledge, tools and methods in sciences and engineering to solve problems involving these disciplines

Learning Outcomes of UE

Understand numeral systems and Boole algebras. Know the main classes of logic circuits, their properties and the associated synthesis methods. Have a general understanding of the use cases and inner workings of systems based on microcontrollers.

I-ULBC-020
  • Written examination - Face-to-face
  • Production (written work, report, essay, collection, product, etc.) - To be submitted in class

Term 2 Assessment - comments

AATerm 2 Assessment - comments
I-ULBC-020Written exam in two parts: a closed-book one and an open-book one. The closed-book part focuses on fundamental theoretical concepts and developments as well as on standard methodologies, whereas the open-book part features deeper questions that require more complex thinking.

Written exam = 65% of mark; project = 35% of mark

Term 3 Assessment - comments

AATerm 3 Assessment - comments
I-ULBC-020The teacher picks one of the following two options:
- A written exam similar to the one of Q1
- An oral exam (with closed book and open book parts, which is similar to the written exam).

Written exam = 100% of mark ; may or may not be possible to apply the marking system of Q2 and include the project mark
