MECHANICAL DESIGN |

CAD |
CAD is a digital tool which assists the mechanical designer in his daily work. The mechanical designer: • Designs mechanical systems, • Projects (draws), • Sizes the mechanical components, • Defines the technological characteristics, • Specifies the technical features, • Guides the production department.
Each session includes a theoretical part and a practical part.
The theoretical part allows the student to improve his knowledge in the following areas: • Use of CAD software: brings together the computer tools that make it possible to carry out a geometric modeling of an object in order to be able to simulate tests with a view to manufacturing, • Use of PLM software: corresponds to all the processes, technologies, software and methods put in place to properly manage the life cycle of a product.
The practical part allows the student to apply his knowledge through a team project comprising the following phases: • Discovery of the main functions of the CAD tool and configuration of the 3D model, • Complete modeling of the project proposed by the teacher, • Integration of CAD data into the PLM, • Creation of definition plans for each part, and overall drawings, • Writing of a complete mechanical design report. |

Design |
Mechanical design is at the heart of the professional practice of an engineer. Based on specifications, the designer's objective is to quickly and efficiently arrive at an optimized pre-project. The mechanical designer: • Designs mechanical systems, • Projects (draws), • Sizes the mechanical components, • Defines the technological characteristics, • Specifies the technical features, • Guides the production department.
Each session includes a theoretical part and a practical part.
The theoretical part allows the student to improve his knowledge in the following areas: • Tribology (friction, wear and lubrication of mechanical contacts), • Functional quotation, dimensional and geometric tolerancing, • Mechanical connections (pivot, embedding, helical and slide), • Power transmission (gears, pulley/belt, constant velocity joints).
The practical part allows the student to apply his knowledge through a team project comprising the following phases: • Analysis of the initial need and development of the Functional Specifications (CDCF), • Production of kinematic diagrams, equivalence classes and linkage graphs, • Realization of sketches and first diagrams of principles, • Carrying out the sizing of the main components and mechanical parts, • Creation of definition plans for each part, and overall drawings, • Writing of a complete mechanical design report. |

International Openness |
"MODULES SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT - history and sociology to help grasp the scale of the ecological challenge. Interaction with other societal issues will be highlighted and will provide the keys to understanding the contemporary world and the positions of different notable players. PHILOSOPHY AND SCIENCES - retrace the joint history of philosophy and science. It will be shown to what extent these two disciplines share a common goal: to understand the world and explain it. The reference to historical philosophers will be analyzed. Questions relating to the scholastic period will be approached before describing the revolutionary work carried out by Descartes and Kant. With modern times, the advent of political science will be presented. Questions about technology in the light of the industrial revolution, will be raised, and this until the recent ethical debates which relate in particular to the transhumanism and the future of man in such a context. GEOPOLITICS – analysis of geopolitical conflicts through the observation of the phenomena of nationalism, fundamentalism, fanaticism and terrorism within a globalization coupled with fragmentation and exclusion. ETHICS - asking through the prism of the human sciences, the questions of responsibility which are raised in engineering. The skills acquired relate to the ethical issues of scientific progress, decryption of the levels of responsibility, the processes and consequences of innovation, and will allow the adoption of a critical attitude on the basis of commitments and choices. CULTURES AND RELIGIONS – integration of the idea that, in an increasingly international environment, the consideration of religious and cultural diversity becomes a major issue. Students will be invited to discover other ways of believing, in connection with other ways of living and think about the world. SOCIOLOGY AND ANTHROPOLOGY - Through the study of several fields (family, gender, nature and culture, institution, power, work, organization, science ...) students will understand how anthropologists and sociologists construct their knowledge to better understand the complexity of the social world in which we live. PSYCHOLOGY AND PSYCHANALYSIS – exploration of certain modes of relationship and mechanisms of groups through perspectives from psychological and psychoanalytic fields. The observation of the models of power and authority, historical events and current events ..., will acquire the tools of understanding of certain mechanisms involved in human relations. "
