Training benefits
The PC bachelor's degree is a general bachelor's degree in Material Sciences, drawing on both Physics and Chemistry. The knowledge base it provides is sufficiently solid and broad for students to be able to go on to MEEF masters, research masters or engineering schools. In other words, the Physics and Chemistry bachelor's degree provides much more than a double skill. It opens up a whole range of disciplines at the interfaces of these two sciences, but also at the interfaces of many others that are at the heart of today's major societal concerns: biology, earth and environmental sciences, applied mathematics and computer science.
Objectives
The Physics and Chemistry bachelor's degree is a general bachelor's degree in the Sciences of Matter, designed to provide a solid foundation of skills in the fields of Physics and Chemistry. It offers a wide range of study options, from professional bachelor's degrees to doctorates, master's degrees and engineering schools, leading to professional integration at various levels, from senior technician to researcher or teacher-researcher, via engineering professions, in both the private and public sectors.
Know-how and skills
- Mobilize concepts from mathematics, computer science, physics and chemistry to tackle and solve highly abstract problems.
- Learn about scientific computing using digital tools
- Identify and independently carry out the various stages of an experimental approach.
- Use the most common laboratory measuring instruments in the fields of physics and chemistry
- Validate a model by comparing its predictions with experimental results, and assess its limits of validity.
- Identify sources of error to calculate the uncertainty of an experimental result.
- Identify and select various resources (bibliographic, web, etc.) to document a subject.
