Observation internship in high school in STL-Biotechnology and/or STS in applied biology under the supervision of a teacher tutor in Biochemistry and Biological Engineering. This course unit, which follows on from the course unit on Pedagogy and Didactics of Biotechnology, provides an initial insight into the realities of the teaching profession. This course unit covers concepts that will be developed further for students in the Master's program in Teaching, Education, and Training (MEEF) in Biotechnology, who are preparing for the CAPET (Certificate of Aptitude for Teaching) in Biotechnology with a specialization in Biochemistry and Biological Engineering. This course unit, combined with that of semester 5, also helps students with their career orientation.
The information gathered during the internship and its processing will be the subject of a written report and an oral defense at the end of the semester.
