Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Mobilize a structured body of specialized scientific and technical knowledge and skills, enabling you to respond with expertise and adaptability to the missions of the civil engineer in IT and Management with a focus on Cybersecurity and Forensics for the Internet of Everything.
    • Master and mobilize knowledge, models, methods and techniques related to cybersecurity, the Internet of Things (IoT) and ubiquitous computing (IoE), depending on the problem to be solved.
  • Imagine, design, develop and implement conceptual models and IT solutions to respond to complex decision-making, optimization, management and production problems, as part of a corporate innovation process that takes into account 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.
    • Deliver a solution selected in the form of diagrams, graphs, prototypes, software and/or digital models.
    • Evaluate the approach and results for their adaptation (modularity, optimisation, quality, robustness, reliability, upgradeability, etc.).
    • Integrate technological innovation and intelligence within engineering teams.
  • 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.
    • Exploit project management principles and tools, particularly the work plan, schedule, document monitoring, versioning and software development methodologies.
    • Assess the approach and achievements, regulate them in view of the observations and feedback received.
    • Respect deadlines and timescales
  • Work effectively in teams, develop leadership, and make decisions in multidisciplinary, multicultural and international contexts.
    • Identify skills and resources, and research external expertise if necessary.
  • 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.
    • Use and produce scientific and technical documents (reports, plans, specifications) 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.
    • Analyse their personal functioning and adapt their professional attitudes.
  • Contribute by researching the innovative solution of a problem in engineering sciences.
    • Construct a theoretical or conceptual reference framework, formulate innovative solutions from the analysis of scientific literature, particularly in new or emerging disciplines.
    • Develop and implement conceptual analysis, numerical modelling, software implementations, experimental studies and behavioural analysis.
    • Collect and analyse data rigorously.
    • Adequately interpret results taking into account the reference framework within which the research was developed.
    • 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.
