Course contents :
 |
| 1. The course should introduce students to some essential practices in an industrial context in order to bring out their actual potential. The fields covered range from automation to biotechnology via industrial chemlstry. As managers students must be able to suggest technological solutions related to those we discussed in class. The course is also an application of the theoretical courses in the first three years.
2. Contents
1. automation (technology that makes it possible to perfomr operation processes automatically - sensors - conditions - actuators) 2. Biotechnology: bacteriology 3. Physical-chemistry: molecular modelling 4. Industrial chemistry: photography, polymers, hardness of water, light and colours. |
 |
Learning outcomes of the course :
 |
| C3 Identifying links between industrial applications and theoretical notions studied in general science courses.
P2 Fnding solutions through analogies between various problems.
P3 Pooling technological resources so as to meet a specific request.
Intended Learning Outcomes of the program addressed by the courses :
- Being capable of professional team work
- Creative conception of solutions
- Professional capacity for written communication
|
 |
Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :
 |
| - General physics (PHYS0122-1), electronics and electrotechnics (TECH0764-1), general chemistry. |
 |
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
 |
| |
 |
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :
 |
| Methodology:
A1 Ex cathedra lecturing
Theoretical introduction (reminder, introduction to types of problems, identifying solutions...)
A1 Study of the course, bibliographical compilation, visits on the sites of companies
A2 supervised exercices, laboratory manipulations (The teacher will help students in their attempt to fid solutions and guide them towards the best solution. Students will develop a critical inquisitive spirit from what they can observe during manipulations)
A3 Problem solving (students finalise their proposals, simulate them, or check results)
A4 Drafting reports (between 5 and 10 reports will have to be handed in by each group of students)
A3 Projects (synthesis) (The teacher proposes a problem (case) involving several technological aspects; individually or in groups students ten have to propose a complete application that meets with requirements).
2. Course schedule
The course covers modules 2 and 3. Students are divided into two groups (to facilitate supervision).
They have to attend two hours of lectures (on Wednesday morning) for twelve weeks. Labs are accessible with a teacher (half a day a week gas to be planned in advance).
3. Work load
A1 Ex cathedra lectures 10*3 hours
A1 studying the course 10 hours
A2 supervised exercices 10 hours
A3 problem solving 10 hours
A4 Drafting reports 5 hours
A3 practical project (synthesis) 5 hours |

Assessment methods and criteria :
 |
| 1. Evaluation tools, evaluation standards and relative weight of the various parts:
We will take into account for the final mark
E2 - reports and exercices (25%)
E3/E4 - mark for the synthesis (25%)
E1/E2 - final written evaluation (50%)
- Students' attitude to problem solving, the way they use lab material, their attitude to other members of the group account will increase or lower their marks.
Evaluation standards as well as the respective wieght of the various components in the final mark will be defined during the first class.
Relative weighting of individual assessment : 75%
2. Evaluation schedule:
- Report/ exercices: every week
- Syntheses: week decided during the first course
- Final evaluation: during evaluation week |
