Goal(s)

One of the key tasks of an ense3 engineer is to design technical solutions under constraints, with the aim of satisfying the needs of society. Their aim is to achieve a technological optimum, guided by criteria of various kinds: economic, environmental, societal, political, etc.
In this sense, the ense3 engineer plays an interface role between the sciences and techniques he masters and the society to which he contributes.
The ability to design a solution to a technical problem requires, in particular, questioning needs and uses in order to draw up complete and precise specifications, taking into account a wide range of constraints, mastering the knowledge and tools needed to design technical solutions, and assessing the relevance of proposed solutions in relation to a set of indicators.

Content(s)

During their time at ense3, student engineers must define and organize their course so as to carry out a minimum of 30 hours of design work, alone or in pairs, without the possibility of combining these 30 hours in different teaching activities (e.g. 10h in 3 different teaching units). These 30 hours can, for example, be combined with a project/BE of lesser duration in the teaching model, but completed by personal work validated by the teacher in charge of the course.

Prerequisites

No specific prerequisites

Test

To validate your skills, you must :

justify your self-positioning in relation to the level expected by the school, thanks to real-life work situations you will have experienced during your stay at Ense3,
convince a jury that you are competent, through a reflective analysis of your skills development path.
To do this, you will draw on :
a skills report containing the evidence of your skills,
an oral presentation during which you will defend this report at the end of your course.

The skills assessment defense is combined with the PFE defense to form a single “end-of-course defense”, lasting 40 min for the PFE and 20 min for the skills assessment.

Validation : validé ou non-validé
