Depending on your educational background or depending on the focus, it is possible that the prerequisites / corequisites for the 1st year of the programme are presented in the block 2. You are therefore invited to read through the list of courses in block 2 even if you are registering for the first time in this master.
Dans le cadre de son master ingénieur civil mécanicien, tout étudiant doit suivre ou valoriser les 65 crédits de formation commune (y compris stage et TFE), 10 crédits de la liste "Mécanique numérique", 15 crédits de cours au choix et 30 crédits d'une des trois finalités spécialisées.

Idéalement, l'étudiant abordant le master aura acquis les compétences et connaissances correspondant aux 40 crédits de cours techniques spécifiques au domaine "Mécanique" organisés dans le cadre de la formation de bachelier ingénieur civil.
