General Description:
In this unit students will deal successively with several problems in their totality. They will need to choose adapted methods and tools, to carry out experiments and to analyse the obtained results.
The case studies will be undertaken in parallel with the courses of the other units. They will lead to direct but progressive use of the concepts, based on pseudo-industrial cases as a central theme, combining a teaching approach with real-time complexity linked to the varied application fields.
