The purpose of this course unit is to prepare students for job interviews by providing them with the tools they need to highlight their past experiences.
This training is conducted using mock interview exercises based on actual job postings.
Labor law here focuses on an analysis of the main provisions of an employment contract, including, in particular, the obligations of the employee, the obligations of the employer, and the termination of the employment relationship.

Biomechanics is primarily based on various mechanical theories (solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, etc.) applied to the study of biological systems. Since the Biomechanics course is open to an audience that may not necessarily be experts in mechanics (doctors, orthopedists, physical therapists, etc.), it is necessary to introduce this audience to the basic concepts of rigid-body mechanics. Indeed, the human body can be considered, as a first approximation, as a set of body segments (foot, leg, thigh, hip, torso, etc.) connected by joints. These segments can be modeled as rigid bodies in order to study aspects related to the body’s static equilibrium, such as its movements, as well as impacts and trauma.
