Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• Communicate and exchange information in a structured way - orally, graphically and in writing, in French and in one or more other languages - scientifically, culturally, technically and interpersonally, by adapting to the intended purpose and the relevant public.
• Argue to and persuade collaborators, clients, teachers and boards, both orally and in writing.
• Select and use the written and oral communication methods and materials adapted to the intended purpose and the relevant public.
• Use and produce high-quality scientific and technical papers (reports, plans, specifications, etc.), adapted particularly to the intended purpose and the relevant public.
• Master technical English in the field of electrical engineering.
• Adopt a professional and responsible approach, showing an open and critical mind in an independent professional development process.
• Analyse their personal functioning and adapt their professional attitudes.
• Finalise a realistic career plan in line with the realities in the field and their profile (aspirations, strengths, weaknesses, etc.).
• Show an open and critical mind by bringing to light technical and non-technical issues of analysed problems and proposed solutions.
• Exploit the different means available in order to inform and train independently.
• Contribute by researching the innovative solution of a problem in engineering sciences.
• Construct a framework/reference model, formulate hypotheses and innovative solutions from the analysis of scientific literature, particularly in new and emerging disciplines.
• Design and implement technical analysis, experimental studies and numerical modelling to address a given problem.
• Collect and analyse data rigorously.
• Adequately interpret results taking into account the reference framework within which the research was developed.
• Communicate, in writing and orally, on the approach and its results in highlighting both the scientific criteria of the research conducted and the theoretical and technical innovation potential, as well as possible non-technical issues.
• Imagine, implement and operate systems/solutions/software to address a complex problem in the field of electrical engineering as an essential source of energy in modern society by integrating needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
• Identify complex problems to be solved and develop the specifications with the client by integrating needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
• Based on modelling and experimentation, design one or more systems/solutions/software addressing the problem raised; evaluate them in light of various parameters of the specifications.
• Implement a chosen system/solution/software in the form of a drawing, a schema, a plan, a model, a prototype, software and/or digital model.
• Evaluate the approach and results for their adaptation (optimisation and quality).
• Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out electrical engineering missions, with a focus on electrical power engineering, using their expertise and adaptability.
• Master and appropriately mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques related to the basics of electricity, electronics, automatic control, signal processing and analysis, telecommunications, electrotechnical engineering (electrical machines, power electronics), engineering of electricity grids (generation, transmission and distribution), the development of renewable energy sources (wind, photovoltaic), the development, implementation and environmentally-friendly use of electrical systems, and specific techniques for the numerical modelling of power devices.
• Analyse and model a problem by critically selecting theories and methodological approaches (modelling, calculations), and taking into account multidisciplinary aspects.
• Identify and discuss possible applications of new and emerging technologies in the field of electrical engineering.
• Assess the validity of models and results in view of the state of science and characteristics of the problem.
• Plan, manage and lead projects in view of their objectives, resources and constraints, ensuring the quality of activities and deliverables.
• Define and align the project in view of its objectives, resources and constraints.
• Exploit project management principles and tools, particularly the work plan, schedule (Gantt chart, PERT chart), and the document monitoring.
• Assess the approach and achievements, regulate them in view of the observations and feedback received.
• Respect deadlines and timescales
