Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Imagine, design, carry out and implement projects and solutions to address a complex problem in the fields of geology and mining engineering by integrating needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
    • Identify complex problems to be solved and formulate the specifications by integrating client needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
  • Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out geology and mining engineering missions, using their expertise and adaptability.
    • Master and appropriately mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques relating to geology, applied mineralogy, applied petrography, hydrogeology and the study of flows underground, applied geophysics, geology with information technology, geostatistics, research and the evaluation of deposits of mineral and energy materials, rock mechanics and rock masses related to mining engineering, planning and exploitation of mineral and energy resources, development of minerals and waste, characterisation, management and treatment of polluted sites, natural hazards and environmental problems.
    • Analyse and model a problem by critically selecting theories and methodological approaches (modelling, calculations), and taking into account multidisciplinary aspects.
  • 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.

Type of Assessment for UE in Q1

  • Oral examination

Q1 UE Assessment Comments

Oral examination during the regular examination period without class notes or laboratory notes. Evaluation on all of the material.

Each student draws the first question dealing with knowledge and understanding of notions explained during the lectures. Each student gives a presentation on his answer (prior written preparation of maximum 30 minutes) and replies to oral questions on this presentation.

There is a second part of the exam : each student gives a short presentation (7 slides - 7 minutes) of a case study and replies to oral questions on this presentation.

Evaluation : evaluation during the field trip, 10% of the mark; exam, 90% of the mark (part 1: 40%, part 2: 50%).

Type of Assessment for UE in Q3
