ME-104: Introduction to structural mechanicsThe student will acquire the basis for the analysis of static structures and deformation of simple structural elements. The focus is given to problem-solving skills in the context of engineering design.
MSE-234: Mechanical behaviour of materialsCe cours est une introduction au comportement mécanique, à l'élaboration, à la structure et au cycle de vie des grandes classes de matériaux de structure (métaux, polymères, céramiques et composites)
MICRO-505: Organic and printed electronicsThis course addresses the implementation of organic and printed electronics technologies using large area manufacturing techniques. It will provide knowledge on materials, printing techniques, devices, systems, and applications: state of the art and current status on commercialization.
BIOENG-442: BiomaterialsThis course covers the fundamental concepts behind the design, function and application of state-of-the-art biomaterials, that is, materials that are designed based on a molecular understanding of their interactions with biological systems.
MSE-464: Assembly techniquesIntroduction to the assembly of materials by homogeneous or heterogeneous joints (welding, bonding, mechanical assembly). Mechanical and environmental resistance of joints.
MSE-211: Organic chemistryThis course provides a basic foundation in organic
chemistry and polymer chemistry, including chemical nomenclature of organic compounds and polymers, an understanding of chemical structures, chemical reaction mechanisms, as well as methods of organic and polymer synthesis.
MSE-101(b): Materials: from chemistry to propertiesThis class will teach the fundamental concepts regarding materials and their micro-structure, as well as the equilibrium and dynamics of chemical reactions. A link will be made between these concepts and the mechanical, thermal, electrical, magnetic and optical properties of materials.
BIO-369: Randomness and information in biological dataBiology is becoming more and more a data science, as illustrated by the explosion of available genome sequences. This course aims to show how we can make sense of such data and harness it in order to understand biological processes in a quantitative way.
