Une introduction à la physique statistique renforce les notions acqu ...
ME-341: Heat and mass transferThis course covers fundamentals of heat transfer and applications to practical problems. Emphasis will be on developing a physical and analytical understanding of conductive, convective, and radiative heat transfer. ...
ME-466: InstabilityThis course focuses on the physical mechanisms at the origin of the transition of a flow from laminar to turbulent using the hydrodynamic instability theory. ...
CS-455: Topics in theoretical computer scienceThe students gain an in-depth knowledge of several current and emerging areas of theoretical computer science. The course familiarizes them with advanced techniques, and develops an understanding of fundamental questions that underlie some of the key probl ...
MSE-304: Surfaces and interfacesThis lecture introduces the fundamental concepts for describing, characterizing, and engineering surfaces and interfaces. Students will develop both theoretical and practical understanding of how interfacial phenomena influence surface properties and techn ...
MSE-326: Ceramic and colloidal processingThe course covers the production of ceramics and colloids from the basic scientific concepts and theories needed to understand the forming processes to the mechanisms and methods of sintering (firing) ceramics. Including the scientific principles behind th ...
MSE-101(a): Matériaux: de la chimie aux propriétésCe 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 et magnétiques des matériaux. ...
COM-516: Markov chains and algorithmic applicationsThe study of random walks finds many applications in computer science and communications. The goal of the course is to get familiar with the theory of random walks, and to get an overview of some applications of this theory to problems of interest in commu ...
AR-201(r): Théorie et critique du projet BA3 (Gay et Menzel)Le studio se concentre sur l'imaginaire contextuel. Le développement de narratifs inspirés à la fois d'un site et de l'imagination de l'étudiant-e conduit à un thème qui guide le processus créatif. L'idée architecturale émerge d'un contexte donné. ...
AR-430: Magma et principesNous proposons à une dizaine de personnalités de mettre en relation deux séquences spatiales issues de deux univers représentatifs l'architecture et le cinéma. Pour ce semestre "TEMPUS SESSORIUM" Le temps de s'assoir. ...
ChE-408: Process intensification and green chemistryThe first part of the course (~20%) is devoted to green chemistry and life cycle assessment.
The remainder focuses on process intensification (fundamentals, detailed description of a few selected technologies, with a special focus on microreactors).
Exa ...
AR-365: Theory and architectural cultureLe cours offre un résumé de la théorie et la culture architecturales depuis 1789 dans le monde occidentale. Le but est de comprendre des textes dans lesquels l'architecture est définie comme une discipline synthétisant une variété de thèmes (sociales, arti ...
MICRO-621: MOOC: Micro and Nanofabrication (MEMS)Micro- and nanofabrication can be taught to students and professionals by textbooks and ex-cathedra lectures, but the real learning comes from seeing the manufacturing steps as they happen. This MOOC will not only explain the basics of microfabrication but ...
AR-401(m): Studio MA1 (Gay and Menzel)The studio is focused on contextual imaginary. Developing narratives, inspired both from the site and from the student's imagination leads to a theme sustaining the project. The narrative helps the student to intervene in the complexity of a given context. ...
