Training programme Bachelor construction
sustainable

The first two years of the Bachelor's Programme in Responsible Engineering enable students to acquire the technical and scientific skills they need to understand the challenges of the sustainable construction sector.
They combine theoretical teaching, practical projects and work experience to develop a pragmatic and innovative approach to engineering.

In particular, students explore :

• Eco-materials and environmental management of construction sites: Understanding bio-sourced and recycled materials, analysing their life cycle and carbon impact.
• BIM and computer-aided design (CAD): mastering digital tools for the design and management of intelligent buildings and infrastructures.
• Sustainable construction methods and energy performance: Study of environmental standards and energy optimisation strategies for designing buildings with a low carbon footprint.
• In addition, these two years include periods in companies, visits to worksites and collaborative workshops for a gradual immersion in the world of construction and sustainable engineering.

From the 2nd year onwards, they can continue with the apprenticeship programme.

In third year Bachelor in Responsible Engineering programme specialise in the key areas of sustainable construction: BIM and digital design, works management or low-carbon energies (nuclear). Thanks to a end-of-studies in-company project, In this way, they put their skills into practice and prepare to enter the world of work.

At the end of the first year, this first contact with the world of work places students at the heart of a construction site. The aim is to understand the workings of the sector, integrate into teams, observe the organisation of a construction project and acquire the right safety reflexes.

Tasks may include:

• Participation in implementation tasks in the field,
• Following instructions and complying with safety standards,
• Observing and learning about the different phases of a worksite,
• Interaction with technical teams and site managers.

This course is a essential immersive experience which helps students gain a better understanding of the challenges and environment of the construction industry.

Developing an international outlook is a priority for BUILDERS École d'Ingénieurs. In the second year, students spend 6 weeks abroad, learning about other approaches to construction and improving their language and intercultural skills.
This stay can take different forms:

• Work placement Integration into a construction or engineering company for a specific assignment,
• Academic mobility Participation in an exchange programme at a partner university,
• International project A sustainable construction project with local players.

This experience enables students to strengthen their ability to adapt and position themselves on the job market with an international dimension.

In the third year, students complete their degree course with a end-of-studies project (PFE) 4-month work placement. The aim of this assignment is to apply all the skills acquired during the course, by tackling a specific problem assigned by a company in the sector.

The EFP can cover different areas, depending on the specialisation chosen:

• BIM Designer development and optimisation of a digital mock-up of a building, management of interactions between project stakeholders.
• Construction management site supervision, deadline and cost management, team management.

Decarbonised energy (nuclear) : study and improvement of energy infrastructure design and maintenance processes.

This project represents a a key step towards professional integration, It allows students to demonstrate their expertise and establish direct contact with recruiters.
