Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out mechanical engineering missions, with a focus on Design and Production, using their expertise and adaptability.
• Master and appropriately mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques related to the mechanics of solids and fluids, energy exchanges, dynamic and vibratory behaviour of systems, manufacturing and mechanical production, operating machines, and production management (organisation, maintenance, quality).
• Study a machine, a mechanical system or a mechanical production unit by critically selecting theories, models and methodological approaches, and taking into account multidisciplinary aspects.
• 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 clients, colleagues, teachers and boards, both orally and in writing.

rational mechanics, fluid mechanics

Type(s) and mode(s) of Q2 UE assessment

• Oral examination - Face-to-face

Q2 UE Assessment Comments

The UE (Educational Unit) comprises two Apprenticeship Activities (AA) : -  The " Fluid Power Actuators " AA - The " Fluid Actuators Technology " AA 
 
The overall rating of the EU is the result of an integrated examination test on the two AA. This integrated examination test consists of 2 parts: - An oral part of theory, maximum 1h, 50% - a written part of exercises, maximum 1h30, 50% This integrated examination est held on a half-day during the session.

Type(s) and mode(s) of Q3 UE assessment

• Oral examination - Face-to-face

Q3 UE Assessment Comments

The UE (Educational Unit) comprises two Apprenticeship Activities (AA) : -  The " Fluid Power Actuators " AA - The " Fluid Actuators Technology " AA 
 
The overall rating of the EU is the result of an integrated examination test on the two AA.
Procedure of this integrated examination test is identical than the one used for the Term 2 Assessment. This integrated examination test takes place on a half-day during the exams session.
