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).
• 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.
• 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.
• Show an open and critical mind by bringing to light technical and non-technical issues of analysed problems and proposed solutions.
• Exploit the different means available in order to inform and train independently.
