Waning: there is a selection process! Please see http://www.ulb.ac.be/facs/polytech/cooperation-Mission.html and/or contact anoncler@ulb.ac.be, bhaut@ulb.ac.be and cboey@ulb.ac.be.
Objective: to practice the concepts acquired previous years in a single project that is applied to development cooperation.
Skills: disciplinary skills in different fields, design methodology and test, project management and planning, group work, writing a technical report, presentation.
In general, each project includes two phases. The first is to study the problem, at the university, based on the demand expressed by our partners in southern countries, in consultation with them. This phase ends with the production of a prototype, tested at the ULB. Students are coached by a technician, a mentor and a resource person. To best take in account the reality of the southern countries, the prototype must be robust, relatively simple in its operation and easily reparable. Then, the second phase consists in replicating the prototype in the filed with our partners, using local materials and resources. The student group is involved in this achievement. The prototype is reproduced there, rather than transported, so that local partners can take part in its implementation, and can, thereafter, repair and reproduce independently. The working language of the student project is chosen in accordance to the language of our partners (either English or French). This language will be communicated to the students in the project description early in the academic year.
Skills: disciplinary skills in different fields, design methodology and test, project management and planning, group work, writing a technical report, presentation.
