Généralités
In this academic module, we have provided general definitions for science and technology careers, where an engineer is defined as a person who can translate scientific concepts and principles into tools and systems that are used for the betterment of people's lives.
It emphasizes the importance of the effective solution of complex problems related to design, production and implementation. An
engineer must have technical, economic, social, and humanitarian knowledge, international language skills, and on-the-job experience.
Engineers work in a variety of industries and sectors, including electronics and IT engineers, aerospace engineers, mechanical
engineers, civil engineers, and business engineers.

Student’s personal work for this subject:
The teacher responsible for this subject can let his students know that he can always evaluate them by offering to prepare job descriptions. Ask students to watch at home a popular science film related to the chosen profession (after having given them either the film on electronic media or having indicated to them the internet link to this film) and ask them to then submit a written report or to make an oral presentation of the summary of this film, etc. The improvement of these activities is left to the discretion of the teacher and the training team who are the only ones able to define the best way to take this personal work into account in the overall mark of the final exam.
Group work: Development of job descriptions for professions in each sector based on recruitment advertisements found on job application sites (e.g. http: //www.onisep.fr/Decouvert-les-metiers, www .indeed.fr, www.pole-emploi.fr) (1 sector / group).
Depending on the capacities of the establishments, recommend calling on doctoral students and former graduates of the establishment in a tutoring/mentoring system where each group can call on its tutor/mentor to develop the job description/discover the different ST professions .
