MICRO-301: Manufacturing technologiesThis course gives an introduction to production methods and manufacturing technologies used in microengineering. The focus is given on the understanding of physical phenomena underlying the processes, the relation between materials, manufacturing processes ...
ENV-200: Environmental chemistryThis course provides students with an overview over the basics of environmental chemistry. This includes the chemistry of natural systems, as well as the fate of anthropogenic chemicals in natural systems. It enables students to apply general chemical conc ...
CH-160(f): Advanced general chemistryCet enseignement vise l'acquisition des notions essentielles relatives à la structure de la matière, aux équilibres et à la réactivité chimiques. Le cours et les exercices fournissent la méthodologie permettant de résoudre par le raisonnement et le calcul ...
CH-435: Asymmetric catalysis for fine chemicals synthesisThe asymmetric synthesis of fine chemicals is a research topic of growing importance for the synthesis of modern materials, drugs and agrochemicals. In this lecture, the concepts of asymmetric catalysis for fine chemical synthesis are introduced. ...
EE-580: Introduction to the design of space mechanismsSpace environment is different from what we can experience on Earth, requiring specific design approaches in order to achieve reliable operations. Engineers must hence face new challenges stimulating their creativity to tackle those particular constraints. ...
ME-469: Nano-scale heat transferIn this course we study heat transfer (and energy conversion) from a microscopic perspective. First we focus on understanding why classical laws (i.e. Fourier Law) are what they are and what are their limits of validity. Next we discuss emerging opportunit ...
AR-202(an): Studio BA4 (Truwant et Rodet)Au 2e semestre, nous poursuivrons l'exploration de la rénovation à Renens, centrée sur les espaces d'apprentissage. Comment dépasser les standards scolaires figés pour imaginer des lieux réversibles, modulaires et ouverts, où l'éducation peut se déployer d ...
PHYS-407: Frontiers in nanosciencesThe course covers relevant experimental and theoretical concepts in nanoscale science, from fundamental aspects like quantum tunneling and quantum size effects, to hot topics like quantum transport and nanoscale magnetism. ...
MSE-100: Introduction to materials scienceThis course relates the structural elements of materials to their mechanical, thermal, electric, magnetic, and optical properties. Hands-on laboratories and team projects offer insight into the profession of materials engineers. ...
AR-201(bc): Studio BA3 (Peris et Toral)In this studio, students will establish the foundational comprehending needed to design collective housing typologies by understanding and applying Louis Kahn's principles of "served and servant spaces. ...
MSE-101(b): Materials:from chemistry to propertiesCe cours permet l'acquisition des notions essentielles relatives à la structure de la matière, aux équilibres et à la réactivité chimique en liaison avec les propriétés mécaniques, thermiques, électriques, magnétiques et optiques des matériaux. ...
AR-202(bc): Studio BA3 (Peris et Toral)In this studio, students will establish the foundational comprehending needed to design collective housing typologies by understanding and applying Louis Kahn's principles of "served and servant spaces. ...
PHYS-491: Magnetism in materialsThe lectures will provide an introduction to magnetism in materials, covering fundamentals of spin and orbital degrees of freedom, interactions between moments and some typical ordering patterns. Selected experimental techniques and their application in cu ...
AR-201(m): Studio BA3 (Taillieu)A house is the simple topic of this studio. A matter of simple complexity. Learning about a house is learning about
architecture. The first part of the year is about learning about a house. The second part is about making your house. ...
