      Objectives of general skills

      • Acquire, understand and use knowledge in the fields of biology and other fields
        • Understand the fundamentals of chemistry (including organic chemistry) and general physics both applied to biology
        • Integrate knowledge from other fields of knowledge with biology (earth science, physics, chemistry, mathematics), in a critical way, to foster an interdisciplinary approach
      • Apply a scientific approach and critical thinking
        • Understand and apply the basic principles of reasoning (obtaining data, analysis, synthesis, comparison, rule of three, syllogism, analogy, etc.)
        • Work with efficiency / accuracy / precision
        • Present a hypothesis and hypothetical-deductive reasoning
        • Develop critical thinking, test and monitor conclusions understanding the domain of validity, and explore alternative hypotheses
      • Communicate effectively and appropriately in French and English
        • Communicate in French, orally and in writing, the results of experiments and observations by constructing and using graphs and tables
      • Develop autonomy, set training objectives and make choices to achieve them
        • Organise time and work, individually and in groups

      UE's Learning outcomes

      the student will have refined his knowledge in general physics (mechanics, fluids, optics, waves, electromagnetism and modern physics). He will understand the physical principles involved in different biological or biomedical applications as:
      -biomechanics,
      -blood flow,
      -elasticity,
      -hearing and vision,
      -nerve pulses,
      -biomedical imaging.
      Finally he will be able to develop a scientific method, to analyze experimental results, to estimate an error and to realize and interpet a graph.
