Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Imagine, implement and operate systems/solutions/software to deal with a complex problem in the field of electricity by integrating needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
    • On the basis of modelling and experimentation, design one or more systems / one or more solutions / one or more software and/or hardware implementations responding to the problem posed; evaluate them taking into account the various parameters of the specifications.
    • Implement a chosen system/solution/software/circuit in the form of a diagram, flow chart, algorithm, plan, model, prototype, program, software and/or digital model.
  • Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out electrical engineering missions, using their expertise and adaptability.
    • Master and mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques relating to the basics of electricity, electronics, automation, signal analysis and processing, telecommunications; modern electrical network engineering (production, transport, distribution); electric vehicles; advanced electronic systems; wired and wireless telecommunications; intelligent sensors; human-machine interfaces; mathematical modelling and analysis of dynamic systems; process control; image processing and processing; and the use of the Internet; advanced electronic systems; wired and wireless telecommunications; intelligent sensors; human-machine interfaces; mathematical modelling and analysis of dynamic systems; process control; image and sound processing and, more s
    • 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.
  • 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.
    • Assess the approach and achievements, regulate them in view of the observations and feedback received.
    • Respect deadlines and timescales
  • 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.
    • 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.

Learning Outcomes of UE
