[LSMF2018]
[60h] 10 credits
This course is taught in the 1st semester.
Teacher(s): Anne-Marie Anckaert, Paul Fisette, Pierre Godard(coord.), Benoît Macq, Bernard Nysten
Language: French
Level: Second
Aims
- understand the technological environments related to a project in one of the following domains: electronic and telecommunications; energy and environment; materials and process; mechanics and electro-mechanics
- analyse a technological problem and the state-of-the-art (the possible usual solutions)
- design original solutions to the given problem
- compare the technological results to the economical, social and environment constraints.
Main themes
- technological courses of the bachelor's degree
- courses related to law
- function courses (marketing, finance ) of the bachelor's degree
- the course of "gestion de projet" of the 1rst year of the master's degree
by means of a team project realisation based on technology.
Content and teaching methods
Les étudiants travaillent par groupes de 5 sur un sujet relevant d'une des disciplines précitées. Les étudiants seront répartis équitablement entre les projets. Certains groupes qui auraient choisi des disciplines différentes pourraient s'ils le souhaitent travailler de manière interactive ; les enseignants encourageront de telles interactions interdisciplinaires.

Other information (prerequisite, evaluation (assessment methods), course materials recommended readings, ...)
Students works in teams of 5, on a subject related to the cited disciplines. Students are distributed equally between all the proposed projects. Some teams which have chosen different disciplines may work in cooperation if they want; the professors will encourage this interactive attitude.
Content
Prerequisites (ideally in terms of competiencies)
Significant scientific knowledges in the concerned technological domain
Evaluation :
The evaluation process is done in two parts: a global evaluation at the team level, based on a project report and an oral presentation, and an individual evaluation, based on a written examination, specific to the domain covered by the project. The global satisfaction implies the satisfaction of the individual part.
Support :
The various teams will be regularly followed and coached by professors and assistant professors of the faculty of engineers.
