Risque et sécurité This course provides the theoretical basis for modern building codes (Eurocodes) and their practical applications in real design cases. The systems (networks, structures) are analyzed in their real environment, tainted with uncertainties, with compromise between risk (security) and cost (direct, indirect as a socio-economic consequence of accidents or disaster). Uncertainties are described by probabilistic distributions: natural or technological hazard. The response and vulnerability of the system are described in uncertain context to deduce risk of failure (level 2 and security index). The last part concerns the regulation, the Eurocodes: dedicated to actions, limit states, combination of actions, regulatory situation, and codes dedicated to materials and structures (reinforced concrete, metal frame, etc.). | 2 | 8h | 10h | |

Architecture Theory courses: They present reflections around the built space, the relationship between private space and public space, by examples of projects or buildings built around the world in the 20th century. These are projects, collective or individual buildings that are unavoidable because of their influence in the architectural environment and their imprint in the places where they were designed. For major architectural works, the courses address the cultural context of their achievement, exploring the relationship between art and architecture. A particular point is realized on different metropolises which initiated an architectural evolution (Paris, Chicago, Barcelona ...)

To discover the social sciences through practice: to learn how to construct an ethnographic research approach. Observation of a field, allowing to collect and analyze the point of view of the users, to apprehend the diversity of the strategies of the different actors on the same space. The work includes the preparation of the field work, the actual survey, its exploitation and finally the writing of a final report | 3 | 16h | 16h | |
Action publique urbaine To give an overview of the construction issues of urban public action today: role of local public actors, organization of communities, organization of different fields of intervention that affect the urban (urban planning, transport, city policy, etc., etc. The course is done in two stages: several general sessions to give the keys of readings in order to perceive the big evolutions of the public action, in particular local, since the years 1970. In a second time, it is about applying this the analysis of particular public actions, which are presented and analyzed by specialists (the creation of new towns, intervention policies on density, local economic development policies). | 3 | 18h | 8h | |

Urbanisme et aménagement This module allows students to be confronted with lands and achievements in terms of planning and urban planning. It focuses on guided tours of sites retracing the historical composition of Paris but also to understand the current production. This work of immersion allows to present the theoretical fundamentals and the keys of reading necessary to the comprehension of a territory. After a workshop locating work, binomial students perform a site analysis to implement the proposed tools. This teaching time highlights the importance of taking into account the context in the act of developing | 3 | 24h | 6h | |

UE 5 Projet urbain The main part of this central module from the point of view of the pedagogical structuring of the third year will consist of giving students the means to build a project which, although not necessarily global, takes into account at best the urban complexity and allows them to federate the various lessons they followed. It is a question of making students understand through the scenario: - the urban project as revealing and descriptor of the interactions of the components of the urban space, - the diversity of the points of view, the complementarities but also the competition between the different actors for the organization of space, - the non-contingent character of the project approach (taking into account a multiplicity of historical, social, economic variables) even if the field of possibilities (options, alternatives) remains widely open. - the importance of the ex ante evaluation of what the project brings in the medium and long term in the form of reasoning and indicators allowing a certain objectivation. The end-of-year project is based on real cases and most often fits into a more or less formal local "order", which provides students with a network of correspondents, municipal or otherwise. It generally takes place in two phases: - a phase of analysis of the urban context of the object of study (documentary research, field surveys, comparison with similar projects, etc.) which leads to a formalization of needs. - a phase of proposals: which leads to facilities, organizations, services, etc. responding to all or part of the identified needs | 8 | 6h | 54h | |
