Msc. in computer science and engineering, professional focus in intelligent systems

Programme content

A MASTER'S TAUGHT IN ENGLISH, A RECOGNISED TRAINING

All the courses of this master's degree are taught in English, given the importance of English in the field of IT.

This immersion provides students with an opportunity for intensive practice and consequently prepares them in an optimal manner for international careers. While the Master's thesis must be written in English, students are free to communicate in French during classes and major tests and exams.

OBJECTIVES

The Master's Degree in Computer Science Engineering offers both the rigour of an in-depth course in Computer Science and the versatility of a course in Engineering Science.

Computer Science Engineers are able to use their capacity for abstraction, their thorough reasoning abilities and their skills in IT as well as in electronics and in various fields of the engineering sciences, in order to design, develop and evaluate complex information processing systems.

The skills acquired will enable them to combine software and hardware to create top-level products and services. The solutions developed will provide users with the best means of optimising their professional activity in sectors as varied as finance, e-commerce medicine, transport, energy, telecommunications and bioinformatics.

COMBINING THEORY AND PRACTICE

Through the demanding practical projects that most of the classes entail, Computer Science Engineers strengthen their knowledge, use their expertise, solve numerous problems, work autonomously and apply their skills in written and oral communication, especially in English. They have the chance to identify the needs and constraints of the industrial world whether while working on their Master's thesis, during their internships or through the classes which enable them to make connections between the concepts taught and their industrial application. They are thus trained to adapt to various languages, methods and tools, that already exist or have yet to be developed!

THE PROGRAMME

The Master in Computer Science Engineering and the Master in Computer Science share a common curriculum combining a solid core in different aspects of computer science, specialized focuses (30 credits) in the key areas of computer systems security and intelligent systems, and a master's thesis, or even an internship, in contact with the professional world. All courses are taught in English.

The focus in intelligent systems concerns IT tools and procedures for analyzing digital data and organizing decision-making processes using, among other things, artificial intelligence methods. The focus is on expert systems and virtual assistants, which are becoming increasingly common in our everyday private and professional lives.
