Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• Imagine, design, build and operate machines, equipment and processes to provide a solution to a complex problem of energy production, conversion and transmission by integrating the needs, constraints, context and technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental issues.
• Identify the complex problem to be solved and develop the specifications by integrating the needs, constraints, context and technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental issues.
• Design and dimension machines, equipment or processes for the production, conversion and transmission of energy in response to the problem posed, based on the state of the art, a study or a model; evaluate them with regard to the various parameters of the specifications.
• Implement a chosen solution in the form of a drawing, schematic, diagram or plan that conforms to standards, a model, a prototype, software and/or a digital model.
• Integrate rational energy management.
• Evaluate the approach and results in order to adapt or optimize the proposed solution.
• Mobilize a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialized techniques to meet, with expertise and adaptability, the missions of the civil engineer in energy engineering.
• Master and appropriately mobilize knowledge, models, methods and techniques related to solid and fluid mechanics, energy exchange, dynamic and vibratory behavior of systems, mechanical manufacturing and production, machine operation, physical phenomena, machines, equipment and processes related to the production, conversion and transmission of energy
• Study a machine, equipment, or process for the production, conversion, or transmission of energy by critically selecting theories, models, and methodological approaches, and by considering multidisciplinary aspects.
• Identify and discuss potential applications of new and emerging technologies in the energy field.
• Assess the validity of models and results given the state of the science and the characteristics of the problem.
• Plan, manage and carry out projects according to their objectives, resources and constraints, ensuring the quality of activities and deliverables.
• Define and frame the project in terms of its objectives, resources and constraints.
• Use project management principles and tools, including work plan, schedule and document tracking.
• Evaluate the approach and achievements, adapt them in light of the observations made and feedback received, and make the necessary adaptations and corrections.
• Meet deadlines and work plan and comply with specifications.
• Work effectively in a team, develop leadership, make decisions in multidisciplinary, multicultural and international contexts.
• Interact effectively with other actors to carry out joint projects in various contexts (multidisciplinary, multicultural and international).
• Contribute to the management and coordination of a team that may be composed of people from different levels and disciplines.
• Identify skills and resources, and seek external expertise if necessary.
• Make decisions, individually or collectively, taking into consideration the parameters (human, technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental) involved.
• Communicate and exchange information in a structured manner - orally, graphically and in writing, in French and in one or more other languages - at the scientific, cultural, technical and interpersonal levels, adapting to the goal pursued and the audience concerned.
• Argue and convince, both orally and in writing, in front of a client, a colleague, teachers and juries.
• Select and use the modes and media of written, graphic or oral communication adapted to the goal and the public concerned.
• Use and produce scientific and technical documents (report, plan, specifications, ...) adapted to the goal and the public concerned.
• Act as a responsible, open-minded, and critical professional in an autonomous professional development process.
• Analyze your personal functioning and adapt your professional attitudes.
• Finalize a realistic professional project in line with the realities of the field and one's profile (aspirations, strengths, weaknesses, etc.).
• Demonstrate openness and critical thinking by comparing the technical and non-technical aspects of the problems analyzed and the solutions proposed.
• Make critical use of the various means available for independent research and training.

Learning Outcomes of UE

At the end of this course, students will be able to:
Position themselves as providers of technical and scientific expertise;
