2022 - 2023 Programme

Teaching Approach

Educational effectiveness is ensured by the complementary nature of several teaching methods: lectures - accompanied by discussions that highlight the participants’ previous experience and professional background, group exercises, individual assignments and academic support classes.

The teaching methods take into consideration the need to optimise the limited time adult students have to devote to such studies in addition to their professional and/or family life.

From the very first term of the first year, measures are taken to familiarise students with university-level work: an initiation to university-level work, a foundation course/foundation courses specially oriented for evening-class students, revision classes,…

The Academic Duidance Service is also available to meet with students upon request.

Assessment

Assessing a student’s knowledge in a subject is generally carried out by means of an examination. Examinations are either written or oral. They test not only students’ knowledge of the subject material per se but also their ability to demonstrate their thorough grasp of a given field by applying it to topics not discussed during the course.

Three exam sessions are organised during the academic year: in January, in June and in September. First-year students who did not achieve passing grades on certain exams in January may retake those exams in June and/or in September.
