Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Implement an engineering approach dealing with a set problem taking into account technical, economic and environmental constraints
    • Understand the stages of an engineering approach
    • Identify and describe the problem to be solved and the functional need (of prospective clients) to be met considering the state of technology
    • Design, evaluate and optimise solutions addressing the problem
    • Implement a chosen solution in the form of a drawing, a schema, a plan, a model, a prototype, software and/or digital model
    • Communicate the approach, results and prospects to a client or a board
    • Identify and acquire the information and skills needed to solve the problem
  • Understand the theoretical and methodological fundamentals in science and engineering to solve problems involving these disciplines
    • Identify, describe and explain basic scientific and mathematical principles
    • Identify, describe and explain the basic principles of engineering particularly in their specialising field
    • Understand laboratory techniques: testing, measuring, monitoring protocol, and security
    • Select and rigorously apply knowledge, tools and methods in sciences and engineering to solve problems involving these disciplines
  • Communicate in a structured way - both orally and in writing, in French and English - giving clear, accurate, reasoned information
    • Argue to and persuade customers, teachers and a board both orally and in writing
    • Use several methods of written and graphic communication: text, tables, equations, sketches, maps, graphs, etc.
    • Present analysis or experiment results in laboratory reports
  • Demonstrate thoroughness and independence throughout their studies
    • Identify the different fields and participants in engineering
    • Demonstrate self-awareness, asses themself, and develop appropriate learning strategies.
    • Direct their choice of modules within their degree programme in order to develop a career plan in line with the realities in the field and their profile (aspirations, strengths, weaknesses, etc.)
    • Develop their scientific curiosity and open-mindedness

Learning Outcomes of UE

To establish links between structure and mechanical, physical and chemical properties of the principal metal alloys, justify their practical applications.
Propose and/or justify the use of a heat treatment in order to modify the mechanical properties of the studied metal alloys. Examine a product and determine how it has been manufactured.
Select an appropriate manufacturing process.
Take into account manufacturing constraints (cost, quality, schedule) when designing a product; understand the role of materials in Manufacturing processes and the effect of processes on the mechanical properties of manufactured parts.
Know the specifics of plastics and thermoset composites.
Select an appropriate manufacturing process for plastics or composites according to specifications.
Analyze the advantages and disadvantages associated with additive manufacturing.
Understand the role of materials in manufacturing processes and the effect of processes on the mechanical properties of manufactured parts.
Understand the importance of manufacturing.

The course gives an overview of manufacturing processes of mechanical products in metals, plastics and composite, as well as additive manufacturing, introduces the language of manufacturing and proposes practical lessons. The aim is also to give to the students the necessary information to understand the metallography and the physical metallurgy applied to metal alloys (steels, cast iron, cast and wrought aluminium alloys, titanium alloys). The improvement of the mechanical properties by various heat treatments is also studied.

The course is given by academics who conduct research in the field of manufacturing technology and, in the same time, maintain close links with industrial companies, providing education to the forefront of technological and industrial requirements.

Content of UE

Prior Experience

Fundamentals of physics; fundamentals of materials, technical drawing.

Type of Assessment for UE in Q1

  • Oral examination
  • Written examination

Q1 UE Assessment Comments

I-META-101: Oral/Written examination (100% of the mark), maximum length de 60 min : on all of the material.
The student prepares his written questions then exposes them. The examination includes general questions and secondary questions about a more precise part of the course. It can also include a exercise based on the use of the diagrams studied during the course and bearing on the realization of the various heat treatments.

I-GMEC-001 et I-GMEC-101:<b> </b>Oral examination, 100% of the mark, with a prior written preparation.

The success of the UE is determined by a minimum score of 8/20 for each AA that constitutes it.

Type of Assessment for UE in Q3

  • Oral examination
