      Objectives of general skills

      • Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out mechanical engineering missions, using their expertise and adaptability.
        • Master and appropriately mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques specific to mechanical engineering.
      • Imagine, design, carry out and operate machinery, equipment and processes to provide a solution to a complex problem of production, conversion and energy transmission by integrating needs, constraints, context and technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental issues.
        • Identify complex problems to be solved and develop the specifications by integrating needs, contexts and technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental issues.
        • Design and calculate the dimensions of machinery, equipment and processes of production, conversion and transmission of energy, based on state of the art, a study or model, addressing the problem raised; evaluate them in light of various parameters of the specifications.
        • Implement a chosen solution in the form of a drawing, a schema, a diagram or a plan that complies with standards, a model, a prototype, software and/or digital model.
        • Evaluate the approach and results for their adaptation or optimisation of the proposed solution.
      • Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out mechanical engineering missions, with a focus on power engineering, using their expertise and adaptability.
        • Master and appropriately mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques related to the mechanics of solids and fluids, energy exchanges, dynamic and vibratory behaviour of systems, manufacturing and mechanical production, operating machines, physical phenomena, machinery, equipment and processes related to the production, conversion and transmission of energy.
        • Study a machine, equipment, or process of production, conversion or energy transmission by critically selecting theories, models and methodological approaches, and taking into account multidisciplinary aspects.
