Basic Courses

These courses are intended for the whole graduating class.

This training course aims at the following:

• To provide a common knowledge base. Emphasis is put on the mathematical tools common to all Majors and students are made aware of modelling and scientific computing.;


• To enable better personalised follow-up for students at the beginning of their studies.


• To inform students about their choice of Major.

During this period, students must take at least four courses out of the five offered. Every course consists of a three-hour lecture, and a three-hour tutorial per week.

The methods of assessment consist of several exams that account for 12 ECTS.

At the end of this six-week period, students will have to choose their Major.
