Description
This learning unit is conducted in a group or individually. It consists of two parts:
• Preparation: Identify a topic based on your career plans
• Formulate a research question based on your literature review and present it in the form of a literature summary that highlights the question to be addressed
• Develop an experimental plan by identifying the data and resources needed to carry out the project.
Objectives
The EU’s objective is to have students work in small groups on an open-ended “water-agriculture” question, for which they must develop ways to address it through experimentation—whether in silico, in the laboratory, or in situ—using the various skills they have acquired throughout the program.
More specifically, this module aims to identify a problem and organize the project’s approach.
Knowledge Assessment
Continuous assessment: 100%
