Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• Implement an engineering approach dealing with a set problem taking into account technical, economic and environmental constraints
• Identify and describe the problem to be solved and the functional need (of prospective clients) to be met considering the state of technology
• 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
• Understand laboratory techniques: testing, measuring, monitoring protocol, and security
• Collaborate, work in a team
• Interact effectively with other students to carry out collaborative projects.
• Communicate in a structured way - both orally and in writing, in French and English - giving clear, accurate, reasoned information
• Present analysis or experiment results in laboratory reports

Learning Outcomes of UE

By the end of this unit, the student will be able to establish a diagnostic based on calculations (taking strength and deformations aspects into account) prior to any foundation or retaining work project. For this purpose and in any situation, he ( she) will be able to choose, prescribe and then perform interpretation of usual soil test(s) that will bring him (her) the data on which he (she) will base his (her) calculation. Aware of technical and economical issues, his (her) answer will be justified and precisely balanced.
