Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes
- Mobilise a structured set of artistic and scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out architectural missions using their expertise and adaptability.
- Master and appropriately mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques specific to the architectural engineering.
- Model a project or solutions by selecting theories and methodological approaches (modelling, calculations) and relevant techniques while taking into account multidisciplinary aspects.
- Identify and discuss possible applications of new and emerging technologies in the field of built environment for the benefit of humans.
- Assess the relevance of models and results in view of the current state of knowledge and construction and the characteristics of the problem.
- Adopt a professional and responsible approach, showing an open and critical mind in an independent professional development process.
- Show an open and critical mind by bringing to light technical and non-technical issues of analysed problems and proposed solutions.
