Application of skills
Project
The acquisition of knowledge in the Engineering cycle is through project-based teaching. Project work helps the student to become a true professional and a sought-after element in the market of Biotechnology.
Scientific case study analysis
The projects come together in specific subjects. Learning is through scientific case study analysis (articles, protocols, patents). Using the experience of the professional teachers in the Engineering cycle, students acquire certain reflexes in their work adapted to their future career.
Common theme
Projects also come together transversallly. Students learn core-business skills around their Major. This project called “common theme” specifically molds the acquisition of practical skills in Research & Development, Bioproduction & Quality, or Marketing & Project Management around a joint subject thought up by the team. Each team of students achieves prefixed objectives in the teaching process by applying each student’s own method. Each team develops its own creativity and through its competitors looks into other methods of approach that they were not familiar with.
Role play
These are role play type projects with a certain urgency involved. These projects can pop up at any moment with no prior planning. The student spontaneously learns how to be reactive, available and act as an entrepreneur.
SBIP : SupBiotech Innovation Project
Finally, the student has an initial period of 6 months to prove the feasibility of his SBIP. Three whole weeks are put aside specifically for the project teams to bring all their resourcefulness into play to cope with all the obstacles encountered during this practical exercise.
Internships
It is about visualising your action in a professional perspective.
Majors and Minors help t make choices, work placements can refine them. In order to improve a student’s chances of finding an internship and a place in the highest level of professional integration, job interview simulations are held in English and French. CVs are also written in the two languages, in a different cultural context.
A 4-month work placement: an internship with responsabilities, with a long enough time period to take in the specific functions of the company.
