LEPL2020 Professional integration work
The modules of LEPL2020 course are organized over the two annual blocks of the master's degree. It is strongly recommended that students take them from year 1, but they will only be able to register for the course at the earliest the year in which they present their final graduation project.
Students who have other professional integration activities in their personal programme, or who can demonstrate an equivalent activity could be exempted from this course. This equivalence is at the discretion of the examination board. Another activity should then be chosen to reach the number of ECTS required for their graduation.

Majors for the Master's degree in mechanical engineering
-
Major in aeronautics
Open to all students of civil and mechanical engineering and electromechanical engineering, classes in this major review mechanical applications of aeronautics: aeronautic structures, vibrations, aerodynamics, dynamics of flight, etc. The learning process consists of advanced classes in the mechanics of fluids and solids, with particular attention paid to numerical methods. This major is complemented by majors in Energy, Dynamics, Robotics and Biomechanics as well as Design, Manufacturing and Materials Mechanics (regarding problems of energy in aeronautics, motorisation, dynamics and the importance of materials in the design and maintenance of airplanes).

Major in dynamics, robotic and biomechanics
Open to all students of civil and mechanical engineering and electromechanical engineering, classes in this major review dynamics, robotics as well as biomechanics. Whether it be an analysis of vibrations, adjustment of a robot or the design and production of components or micro-components in bioengineering (for example, artificial Implants, valves and prosthetics), this major allows students to address one or more applications from a mechanics perspective. This major is complemented by the majors in Aeronautics, Energy as well as Design, Manufacturing and Materials Mechanics especially for students interested in problems related to dynamics and robotics in aeronautics and energy. The design and the choice of materials is crucial whether it be for the adjustment of a robot or the selection of bio-materials in rehabilitation projects.

Major in energy
Classes in this major review the subject of energy in the real world. This subject is addressed in its entirety first by the study of production techniques and energy conversion (thermal machines, nuclear energy, renewable energy) followed by an analysis of the risks associated with energy production and the means of minimising these risks (major risks, pollution) and finally a study of energy consumption and its consequences. This major is complemented by the major in Aeronautics for those students interested in problems of energy and motorisation in aeronautics. This is also the case for the major in Dynamics, Robotics and Biomechanics as well as the major in Design, Manufacturing and Materials Mechanics for students interested in dynamics, automation, and materials used in the design and maintenance of systems of production and energy conversion.

Major in nuclear engineering
As with the Master’s in civil electromechanical engineering with a specialization in energy as well as the Master’s in civil and mechanical engineering, the goal of this major is to offer an in-depth education in the principal aspects of nuclear engineering. Entry into this programme, which is primarily overseen by the Mol Centre of Nuclear Energy, is conditional on an evaluation of candidates’ skills based on the rules used for ERASMUS-SOCRATES exchange students. Further information about this major may be found on Mol’s website SCK-CEN.

Major in design, manufacturing and mechanics of materials
Open to civil, mechanical and electromechanical engineering students, this major reviews design, manufacturing and the importance of materials in the development of a mechanical system. It also addresses physical and chemical properties and the behaviour of metals, polymers and composites. Next, the main techniques for shaping these materials (moulding by injection or compression, stretching, laminating, forging, extrusion, embossing) are studied from the thermo-mechanical and technological point of view. Finally, numerical modelling of these procedures is tackled with particular attention paid to welding techniques. All phases of the mechanical manufacturing process are studied from the design stage to the setting up of suitable manufacturing techniques to the production schedule and organisation of working groups. This major is rounded out by those in aeronautics and energy as well as dynamics, robotics and biomechanics for students interested in issues pertaining to design, manufacturing and the importance of materials be they in aeronautics, energy, transportation or bio-engineering.

Major in Interdisciplinary Program in Entrepreneurship - INEO
Commune à la plupart des masters de l'EPL, cette option a pour objectif de familiariser l'étudiant·e avec les spécificités de l'entreprenariat et de la création d’entreprise afin de développer chez lui les aptitudes, connaissances et outils nécessaires à la création d'entreprise.
Cette option rassemble des étudiants de différentes facultés en équipes interdisciplinaires afin de créer un projet entrepreneurial. La formation interdisciplinaire en entrepreneuriat (INEO) est une option qui s’étend sur 2 ans et s’intègre dans plus de 30 Masters de 9 facultés/écoles de l’UCLouvain. Le choix de l’option INEO implique la réalisation d’un mémoire interfacultaire (en équipe) portant sur un projet de création d’entreprise. L’accès à cette option, ainsi qu'à chacun des cours, est limité aux étudiant·es sélectionnés sur dossier. Toutes les informations sur /fr/etudier/ineo.
L'étudiant.e qui choisit de valider cette option doit sélectionner au minimum 20 crédits et au maximum 25 crédits. Cette option n'est pas accessible en anglais et ne peut être prise simultanément avec l'option « Enjeux de l'entreprise ».Content:
