Master [120] of science in Agricultural Bioengineering - BIRA2M
The Master in Agricultural Bioengineering with a professional focus is designed to train bioengineers in the field of agronomic science and technology : animal and plant production, plant improvement and protection, animal improvement, quality of food and health products, biotechnology, environmental impact of agriculture, land management, rural socio-economics, industry, management etc.
The programme is designed to train future bioengineers to become :
Training provides students with :
Strongly multidisciplinary in character, the training focuses on acquiring skills which combine the theory and techniques of bioengineering. There is special emphasis on the mechanistic study of processes, the design and implementation of procedures (e.g. biotechnology, technical routes, development of resources), systems analysis, impact assessment, multisource data fusion and support for decision-taking. General presentation of the programme
This programme comprises a series of activities totalling 120 credits spread over two years worth 60 credits each. It is structured as follows :
Year 1 :
Optional subjects :
There are some optional courses within the programme. They may either be chosen from a suggested list or may be chosen freely from the all courses available at UCL or even another institution. The same applies to all the optional courses in the programme. Additional training "Business Creation"
Students enrolled on the Master in Bioengineering programme have the possibility of taking a module of interdisciplinary training entitled “Business Creation”. This additional programme features in the Master programmes of various faculties (Bioengineering, Law, Business Management, Civil Engineering and Psychology). It is designed to provide students, as potential creators, with the tools for analysis and understanding which will help them appreciate how entrepreneurship works when creating or taking on a business and develop projects of this kind within existing organizations. Whatever focuses and option courses are chosen, the programme for this Master must come to a minimum of 120 credits spread over two years of study. This corresponds to 60 credits per year. Wathever the focus or the options chosen, the programme of this master shall totalise 120 credits, spread over two years of studies each of 60 credits Choix d'une option (parmi sept) en première année et d'un module d'approfondissement (parmi onze) en deuxième année:
This Master in Bioengineering programme follows on directly from the programme of the Bachelor in Engineering Science (Bioengineering), with an option course in Agronomy.
Successful completion of this programme enables direct entry to other training programmes in the second and third cycles.
