Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Imagine, implement and operate systems/solutions/software to address a complex problem in the field of electrical engineering as a source of information 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).
    • Evaluate the approach and results for their adaptation (tests, measurements, optimisation and quality).
  • Plan, manage and lead projects in view of their objectives, resources and constraints, ensuring the quality of activities and deliverables.
    • 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.
  • Work effectively in teams, develop leadership, and make decisions in multidisciplinary, multicultural and international contexts.
    • Make decisions, individually or collectively, taking into account the parameters involved (human, technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
  • 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.

Learning Outcomes of UE

Understand and define the "maintenance" function in an industrial context; understand how maintenance may contribute on performance of the production; recognize the main maintenance policies and the management principles for RAMS (reliability, availability, maintenability and safety). 
Understand the main concepts of quality in industry. Apply various "quality tools". 
Optimize the layout of a workshop; schedule a project or a workshop; manage the supply chain; understand ERP management.

UE Content: description and pedagogical relevance

Maintenance and RAMS (reliability, availability, maintenability and safety); terminology; maintenance organisation; reliability of electronic systems, mechanical systems and structures. Some case studies are defined with respect of the specialization of the students. 
Qualite and conformity. Statistical Process Control. Design of Experiments.
Operational decision in the enterprise: line balancing; project scheduling with resource; production scheduling (flowshop and jobshop); inventory management; MRP and ERP; Just-in-Time, facility layout.
Production and maintenance management methods must be harmonized for asset management, justifying the combination of the learnng activities AA.

I-MARO-010The evaluation methods are likely to be adjusted according to the context imposed by the health measures.
These evaluation methods can be composed of personal work (and / or in groups), presentations, written exam, oral exam (online evaluations depending on the health measures).
For students who have not respected the 80% participation rule, the evaluation will be based on the theoretical knowledge of the course.
I-GMEC-033The assessment includes compulsory participation in the seminar for the presentation of scientific publications and in the serious game. Failure to participate in one of these face-to-face activities results in a failure rating in the first session.
Oral examination, the individual duration of which does not exceed two hours. Students should discuss, if this activity is included, the scientific article that they presented as a case study that was discussed collectively during the seminar. The assimilation of the elements presented during the course, the seminar and the serious game is checked on this occasion.

I-GMEC-033If the failure in the first session is due to a deficiency for the seminar activity, an equivalent personal work (written summary of the assigned article on 5 pages and summary slide show) is required for this part.
If the failure in the first session is due to a deficiency for the serious game activity, an equivalent personal work (written summary of an additional article or a book chapter on 5 pages and summary slide show) is required for this part.
The oral exam remains required in any circumstance to assess the correct understanding of the concepts explained in the learning activity.
