Teaching methods
- lectures (introduced with practical problems),
- lecture notes written in French by the teachers (English reference book available),
- solution of exercises in smaller groups,
- laboratories in groups of 3 or 6 students,
- videos showing processes that are not presented in the lab sessions.
Evaluation methods
Evaluation of the student personal involvement during the lab sessions (15%) and written exam assessing the learning outcomes (85%).
