Course contents :  The course is intended to bring to the students three complementary and mandatory activities:
1. The active participation to pedagogic activity related to physics experiment sessions with students (mainly) from the 1st Bachelor in Life Science.
2. The achievement of an internal training session, inside the DEPHY or AGO department.
3. The achievement of an external observation training session, in Research Institutes, Industries, other Universities, or even secondary schools.
Course objective :  The main objective of this course is to make the students discover the multiple facets of Physician's job. This approach should help them to make a choice between the orientations that they will face when entering in Master degree.
Prerequisites :  Notions of TeX editor, learned during the second year of Bachelor in Physics, will be very helpful to prepare the required reports.
Workshops :  There is no experimental activities, in the usual meaning.
Organization :  First four-month period:
1. Participation to the pedagogic activity related to physics experiment sessions (3 x 3 h), optionally extended over the second four-month period.
2. Oral presentations of the Research Units from the Dephy and AGO departments (3 h + 2 h). Distribution of external training session list.

Second four-month period:
Internal and external training sessions combined in one full week (probably the first week of the second four-month period); related reports and oral presentation at the end of this period.
Written notes :  No note course is foreseen.
However, in the frame of the pedagogic preparation of physics experiment sessions, a copy of the booklet which is distributed to the 1st Bachelor students will be available.
Assessment :  The final quotation will be weighted following the rule below:
1. Pedagogic experiment sessions: 30%
2. Internal training sessions: 40%
3. External training sessions: 30%
In case of non attendance to one of these sessions, without official justification (disease or exceptional circumstances), the final quotation will be entered as ABSENT.
