Bachelor Physics and chemistry

Double licence Mathématiques-Physique
Entry requirements
In the 1st year: Holders of old Scientific Baccalaureate ("S") (Mathematics or Physics-Chemistry specialization) or new general Baccalaureate (specializations required are Mathematics and Physics-Chemistry, option Expert Mathematics is highly recommended). In the 2nd and 3rd years: scientific training first year or two years university-level courses in Mathematics and Physics.
Benefits of the program
Given its dual subject particularity (Mathematics and Physics, Chemistry), our course provides a real alternative to traditional preparatory classes and offers a 3-year level diploma. Students' excellent level of knowledge and skills in mathematics and physical sciences offers them a wide range of opportunities for pursuing their studies. To facilitate transition from high school, a pre-term-start tutoring programme is organized and most modules during the 1st year are in small classes (Lessons-tutorials). To encourage students to work regularly and independently, regular checks are carried out and online exercises are proposed. During the cycle, students may request to join the specific Mathematics or Physics, Chemistry pathways.
Acquired skills
Acquiring sound general scientific training on theoretical, experimental and digital levels. Ability to roll out a scientific and/or abstraction approach. Explaining and presenting a project in writing and orally. In Mathematics: proficiency in the fundamental concepts of analysis, probability, statistics and linear algebra. In Physics and Chemistry: solving theoretical problems from Newtonian physics to modern physics and understanding its applications. In Computer Science: mastering the Python language.

Calculus The objective of this EU is to deepen the concepts of analysis seen at the science terminal and to improve the computational skills of students. Complex numbers, derivability, primitive calculation, study of usual reciprocal functions, polynomials, as well as first and second order ordinary differential equations, linear and with constant coefficients are discussed.

Methodology The learning outcomes of the "méthodologie des mathématiques" course are designed to acquire the mathematical method based on the unambiguous definition of notions, the formulation of conjectures, the formulation of mathematical propositions and their demonstration using logic from more basic propositions, going back to the axioms. To do this, learning and mastering the language of mathematics is fundamental (speech, syntax, objects, variables). This course aims to allow the acquisition of the basic elements of this language by its implementation in simple demonstrations addressing basic but new concepts that will be seen in class. Topics include naïve set theory, applications, binary relations, natural integers and groups. At the end of this course the students will be able to independently demonstrate simple original propositions concerning these notions. This course is built around three modalities: the lecture, the tutorials, and the personal work. These revolve around the elements transmitted in class and in Tds but also with the help of other educational resources, including self-correcting exercises.

Computer science 1 This course introduces the basics of Python programming (variables, types, conditional structures, loops, functions, modules, lists, reading/writing in a file). The concepts and tools essential to scientific computing are emphasized (float type, SciPy and Matplotlib modules). The course has no prerequisite in programming. Langue de l'enseignementFRANÇAIS / FRENCH | 4 | 12h | 24h | |
English 1 The teaching of English during the bachelor's degree aims to improve written and oral skills so that students become more autonomous. The aim is to be able to understand and communicate in future professional exchanges, as well as to be able to understand the scientific articles that they may encounter during their studies and/or professional lives. Throughout the bachelor's degree, English courses focus on providing an opening to different cultures in order to encourage exchanges between countries. Level groups are set up during the first semester to enable everyone to approach English courses in the best possible conditions. The emphasis is on oral participation thanks to a quality policy of the UFR which organises English courses in half groups. Langue de l'enseignementANGLAIS / ENGLISH | 2 | 15h | ||
