Additional courses (preparatory module) to the master course

To access  this Master, students must have a good command of certain subjects. If this is not the case, they must add supplementary classes at the beginning of their Master’s programme in order to obtain the prerequisites for these studies.

To access to this Master's degree, the student has to master a minimum of preliminary skills in mathematics, programming, algorithmic and probability-statistics. If it is not the case, additional teachings must be added to his program. He can nevertheless include a maximum of 10 of these credits in the prerequisite module planned in the common-core syllabus of the Master's degree.

Students who do not have a B1 level in English (level obtained at UCLouvain) must take the LANGL1330 (https://uclouvain.be/en-cours-langl1330) English course. A dispensatory test is organized at the beginning of the academic year.

The student is invited to meet the program advisor to decide which courses should be followed. The restricted jury must next approve his program.
