This teaching unit covers the various aspects of the current fuel cycle and future nuclear cycles. It will cover concepts relating to the front end of the cycle (mineral resources, uranium extraction and purification, isotopic enrichment), the passage of fuels through nuclear reactors, and the back end of the cycle (reprocessing of spent fuel, recycling of recoverable materials and fuel remanufacturing, management of final nuclear waste). This will be followed by several aspects relating to future nuclear fuel cycles, in particular the use of unconventional resources, advanced separation concepts, and the development of fourth-generation reactors.

Hourly volumes:

            CM: 3 p.m.

            Tutorial: 5 hours

Project management is an essential skill for professionals with a master's degree. This course unit aims to enable you to design and manage a project. We will look at the different phases of a project, its financing (diversification of sources and budget), work, time and resource planning, teamwork (meetings, conflicts, reporting) and risk management. The course will be taught via a six-week MOOC on "project management" (core curriculum, or traditional program—20 hours of training: core curriculum (four weeks) + at least two specialization modules) between late September and early November, supplemented by various tutorials.

Innovation is the culmination of scientific research, but it is also essential for the survival and/or development of most companies and associations, and therefore of all human organizations. Innovation is also a very important driver of economic development in regions, where it is often linked to the circular economy or the social economy. 

Being able to participate in the design and implementation of innovative projects, and finding the financial and partnership resources to do so, are skills that are increasingly sought after in all employees, regardless of their status and role in their organization (in short, from workers to CEOs, including technicians, engineers, and even researchers!). It is as much about instilling a professional culture of innovation as it is about teaching the basic methodological and technical principles. This educational teaching is based on project-based learning and uses seminars (7 days a week, 24 hours a day) in a closed environment, cut off from the outside world to allow for better concentration. The pedagogical principle is to bring together several skills (in our case, those from four GE master's degree programs and two Energy master's degree programs) in the same space and time to work in groups on an environmental and local issue. Conferences, meetings, visits, reflection, and work will alternate to allow students to submit a written response and give an oral presentation at the end of the week. The best projects will be presented orally to a jury of professionals and defended by the students. 

Open to all GE majors in M2 (except the GeIBioTe track) in FI and APP and to the Master's in Energy.

With the exception of the Aquadura course, for which this EU takes place over the semester, Cogithon takes the form of a six-day seminar. The seminar begins with a theoretical component (on the first day) and then continues in the form of workshops in which students are organized into project teams. The teams compete to present a project as part of a call for tenders that changes each year and is developed in partnership with local stakeholders. The call for tenders is based on the work of the Aquadura course and their November presentations.
