Note: Topics can be adjusted and/or modified at the discretion of the master's coordination.
The methodology used combines master classes, student participation, practical exercise at class and solving a challenge or doing a research exercise as final work. For the student, this will involve group work with an oral presentation at class and a written assessment.
This subject will be assessed on a continuous via the development of a challenge proposed or by a research work on already existing solutions in some scientific context and a final presentation in class.
Continuous assessment
This subject will be assessed on a continuous via the development of a challenge proposed or by a research work on already existing solutions in some scientific context and a final presentation in class.
The final grade will be a weighting of:
- Challenge solution (implementation) and/or presentation or research work: 80%
- Class participation: 20%
Extraordinary call
The exam and/or works of extraordinary call will be determined from the coordination of the subject.
