Presentation
By enrolling in the Bachelor of Technology in Electrical Engineering and Industrial Computing (B.U.T. GEII), students benefit from a three-year integrated program leading to a bachelor's degree. The degree is aligned with international standards and facilitates exchanges with foreign universities.
With the GEII B.U.T., students continue to benefit from university-level technological education supervised by experienced teaching teams. The curriculum is still structured around professional scenarios and periods spent in companies in the form of internships or work-study programs.
Objectives
A versatile degree, the B.U.T. GEII aims to train middle managers capable of setting up and managing electrical installations, designing, producing, programming, and maintaining fixed or embedded electronic cards (automotive, avionics, robotics, etc.), and automating and controlling industrial processes.
You will be able to manage and maintain industrial computer networks, analyze and develop information processing and transmission systems.
Ultimately, you will work in areas such as cities and industry of the future, smart and connected networks, transportation and electromobility, aeronautics, renewable energies, healthcare, audiovisual media, space, etc.
Know-how and skills
The GEII program helps develop four professional skills:
- Designing the GEII part of a system: by adopting a holistic approach that integrates technological innovations in line with the company's strategy to meet customer needs; by producing all the necessary documents for the customer and the various service providers; by communicating appropriately with the various stakeholders before and during the design phase.
- Verify the GEII part of a system: taking into account specific hardware, regulatory, and contextual factors; implementing a testing and evaluation plan with a view to qualitative and corrective analysis; taking into account the company's economic, environmental, and regulatory issues.
- Ensuring that a system remains operational: by adopting proactive communication with the various stakeholders; by adopting a holistic approach that integrates new technologies and digital transformation.
- Skill 4: specific to each course
These four skills in the GEII specialty include the six cross-disciplinary skills listed below:
- digital technology use,
- data exploitation for analysis purposes,
- written and oral expression and communication,
- positioning within a professional field,
- mastery of various information and communication techniques,
- responsible action within a professional organization.
International dimension
Facilitated international mobility.
Organization
Knowledge assessment
Knowledge is assessed on an ongoing basis and at the end of each semester ( 30 ECTS per semester). This allows students to gauge their level of mastery of the skills acquired. A total of 6 semesters (180 ECTS) must be completed in order to obtain the B.U.T. GEII degree.
Students who do not wish to continue into the third year of the GEII B.U.T. program and who have earned 120 ECTS credits (four semesters) may request a GEII University Technology Diploma (D.U.T.) (two years of higher education).
Special facilities
High-level athletes
The university wishes to provide high-level athleteswith the necessary resources to pursue their university studies. Support is provided in the form of study programs adapted to sporting constraints, with the aim of reconciling higher education and sporting careers.
To find out if you are eligible, check your eligibility here
The application for high-level status must be made every year.
Established artists
The university promotes access to initial and continuing education for established artists. Support may take the form of tailored course arrangements. For more information, contact the Registrar's Office. here.
Students with disabilities
Complementary in their missions, the Handiversité and Preventive Medicine services work together to support you in the success of your educational journey. They are your primary contacts for providing information, assessing your situation, recommending appropriate accommodations, and monitoring their implementation. (More info here).
Internships, supervised projects
Internship | Mandatory |
|---|---|
Duration of the internship | A minimum of 22 weeks spread over the 3 years in order to apply the skills acquired. |
Supervised projects
A total of 600 hours is allocated to supervised projects. These projects enable students to conduct research in small groups. They are carried out over the three years of the program in parallel with traditional teaching.
Program
The program begins in September and lasts three years. It focuses on academic and technological instruction. The total number of hours is 2,000, spread over six semesters. The program is built around a skills-based approach. Skills are acquired through a combination of professional scenarios and theoretical instruction.

(*) Learning and Assessment Situations (LAS)
LASenable the assessment of skills in situ. This assessment is carried out in accordance with all the elements that make up the reference framework and is based on the portfolio approach, i.e., a process of reflection and demonstration led by the student themselves. As a set of actions, SAE requires students to choose, mobilize, and combine resources that are relevant and consistent with the targeted objectives. The challenges of SAE are therefore multiple:
- Participating in the development of skills;
- Supporting learning and mastery of resources;
- Integrating self-assessment by the student;
- Enabling individualized learning.
(**) The portfolio approach
Sometimes referred to as a skills portfolio or professional passport, the portfolio is a point of connection between the academic world and the socio-economic world. In this respect, it addresses all aspects of the student's professionalization: from their training to their future as a professional.
(***) The Personal and Professional Project (PPP)
Present in each semester of the program and supported by all the teachers in the teaching team, the Personal and Professional Project is a structuring element that allows students to take charge of their education, understand and appropriate its content, objectives, and targeted skills.
From the second year onwards, students choose a course of study and acquire specific skills related to their chosen course.
- Automation and Industrial IT (AII): INTEGRATINGa command and control system into industrial processes,
- Electricity and Energy Management (EME): INSTALL all or part of an on-site energy production, conversion, and management system.
- Electronics and Embedded Systems (ESE): IMPLEMENT a hardware or software system.
