3 The 4 th year in ESIEA The objective of this study year is to acquire knowledge and skills that will be directly applicable in the workplace in an international and complex environment. Students can tailor their studies to correspond to their talents, personality and personal and professional projects. In the 4th year, our future engineers begin to specialise in order to be better prepared for their entry into the world of work. The students deepen their scientific and technical skills through the technical lectures in the core program. Stochastic processes, digital optimisation, computing networks, systems management and programming, estimation, Windows CE embedded systems. They attend specific lectures depending on their elective program. Embedded systems Signal processing, design of programmable components (expanding area in consumer electronics, aerospace, automotive industry, robotics), robotics, serial transmission (electronic data processing), identification and control (modelling of complex systems) or Information systems Database management systems, Frame Work Dot Net, Business intelligence, digital imaging, virtual reality, IT security and virology, data analysis, neural computing (neural network: programming techniques used for example for the Wii), object oriented application design and architecture. They consolidate their general engineering profile with lectures linked to business culture: the challenges of sustainable development, European policy, project management, one-week-seminar on psychology of human relations and language labs emphasising professional communication. The core humanities program is completed by lectures and conferences on economy, law and business management. The business administration lecture contains a game simulation over several weeks bringing several student groups into competition. During the seminar environment and business strategy (during a week in a ski resort) people from industry present issues occurring in companies which the students develop in team work. The students then present their work to the experts. 3

4 This is an important and intense moment in the 4th year as the students are in contact with the business world for a whole week. The scientific project in the 4th year is called PAIR (Industrial Application Project or Research Application Project). It is done in teams of 3 or 4 students in partnership with a company or a research laboratory. This multidisciplinary project must be sustainable and must contain an innovative component. At the end of the 4th year, each student is ready for his/ her first real work experience and leaves for a technical internship for 4 months. The objective of the internship is to apply the acquired knowledge and skills in their program to corresponding software or hardware. 4
