Internship research

This module is devoted to an internship of 3 months minimum in a research laboratory or industry.

getting familiar with the conduction of a research/R&D project

- Synthesis and physico-chemical characterization of materials

- Developing skills in research work using the initiative, the autonomy and the student's curiosity

- literature survey
