The industrial project is a work that can be carried out in pairs or individually, its main objective is the efficient and autonomous management of a project with an external client. As a result, it places the student in the position of a service provider responding to a client's request by drawing up and then producing specifications and supplying the expected deliverables to the client. It should enable students to apply the managerial and scientific knowledge and skills acquired during their studies.

The student is responsible for the progress of his project: communication between the different actors is an essential aspect of the industrial project.

Programme and content

Type of teaching activity	Content, sequencing and organisation
Project based learning	The Industrial project is sequenced as follows: Meeting for the project launch, beginning of October An identity file of the partner company The context of the mission A list of objectives to be achieved during the project A description of the scientific skills to be applied during the project, forward planning of the entire project sequenced into tasks with success indicators and associated milestones. Intermediary up-dating sessions At each milestone date (maximum spacing: 1 month) the student must present to his tutors the deliverable defined in the specifications: Work done during the milestone Adequacy with the objective initially set Difficulties encountered explaining the possible delay Initiatives taken Proposals for adjusting planning and objectives Definition of the next milestone (date and associated objective). Final Presentation at the end of January 20 minutes of presentation and 10 minutes of questions from a jury composed of the school tutor, the company tutor and an external member. At the end of the technical defense, the jury decides on the technical content of the project. If the defense is validated, the student writes a technical report to the company, containing all the elements (procedures, codes included) allowing the company to operate / continue the work. The validation by the company of the final report allows the validation of the industrial project. In case of insufficient technical content during the defense, the student must complete his work before writing the final report.

Content, sequencing and organisation

Project based learning

The Industrial project is sequenced as follows:

Meeting for the project launch, beginning of October

An identity file of the partner company
The context of the mission
A list of objectives to be achieved during the project
A description of the scientific skills to be applied during the project,
forward planning of the entire project sequenced into tasks with success indicators and associated milestones.

Intermediary up-dating sessions

At each milestone date (maximum spacing: 1 month) the student must present to his tutors the deliverable defined in the specifications:

Work done during the milestone
Adequacy with the objective initially set
Difficulties encountered explaining the possible delay
Initiatives taken
Proposals for adjusting planning and objectives
Definition of the next milestone (date and associated objective).

Final Presentation at the end of January

20 minutes of presentation and 10 minutes of questions from a jury composed of the school tutor, the company tutor and an external member.
At the end of the technical defense, the jury decides on the technical content of the project.
If the defense is validated, the student writes a technical report to the company, containing all the elements (procedures, codes included) allowing the company to operate / continue the work. The validation by the company of the final report allows the validation of the industrial project.
In case of insufficient technical content during the defense, the student must complete his work before writing the final report.
