Note from June 29, 2020
Although we do not yet know how long the social distancing related to the Covid-19 pandemic will last, and regardless of the changes that had to be made in the evaluation of the June 2020 session in relation to what is provided for in this learning unit description, new learnig unit evaluation methods may still be adopted by the teachers; details of these methods have been - or will be - communicated to the students by the teachers, as soon as possible.

Main themes
The course is divided into 2 parts. T
he first part consists of an introduction to key concepts of thermodynamics, heat transfer and energy and address the problem of environmental issues.
The second part is devoted to the study of electrical, technology, integrated circuits, and discusses the key concepts of electronic analog and digital as well as basic concepts and techniques to understand the telecommunications network architecture.
Aims
At the end of this learning unit, the student is able to : | |
| 1 | The course aims to give students the technological base in the fields of energy and environment, electronics and telecommunications, to enable it to understand the specific language of science and collaborate and interact with specialists in these fields. The course also aims to make possible the implementation of a project in control. |
