Content of standard programme

A large part of the bachelor programme of Computing Sciences comprises an ensemble of compulsory courses ( common pool of subjects ) : general and polyvalent studies (Mathematics, Sciences and Techniques, Human Sciences, Economics and Management, Languages) and Computing Studies .

The student will complete this common pool by means of a coherent ensemble of courses (minor) in accordance with his preferences.

Common pool of subjects

Besides the courses in computing , the common pool of the bachelor programme comprising the compulsory courses aims to help the student to :

  • acquire the mathematical tools necessary for the computer specialist as well as training in rigour and reasoning
  • to apprehend, in an intuitive way, the essence of the physical phenomena and mechanisms ( electronics and telecommunications ) at the interface of computing, in order to to understand the mode of functioning of the equipment used
  • to master the fundamental concepts and mechanism of e conomics and of management within organisations, so as to be able to create computing systems which will be harmoniously integrated into the socio-economic environments for which they are destined
  • to develop other human and linguistic skills.
