Creating vocations. While most engineers are destined for careers in the corporate world, some wish to pursue a different path: that of research.

Our role at UniLaSalle is to contribute to the emergence of these scientific vocations, in particular through :

  • hosting thesis students in UnilaSalle research units;
  • introduction to research and reflection on research within engineering curricula;
  • the writing of an introductory research dissertation in the 3rd year of the Earth and Environmental Sciences engineering curriculum;
  • full-scale academic projects in years 4 and 5 of the engineering curriculum, 2/3 of which focus on Research & Development issues (and 1/3 on operational issues). 
A structuring pedagogy
for students

Training through research fosters the acquisition of essential engineering skills. Dynamic and practical, combining fieldwork, laboratory analysis and exchanges with partner companies, it teaches student engineers to :

  • develop a critical eye
  • acquire rigor and organization ;
  • master scientific methods;
  • work safely on a restricted-access research platform. 
Research Workshops

In-house training for scientific staff

 

The Research workshops run by the Research, Development and Innovation Department are aimed at supporting UniLaSalle's teacher-researchers, post-docs and scientific staff in their R&D initiatives.

 

Some examples of workshops:

  • Writing a scientific article,  
  • Open Science,  
  • How to set up and follow up an R&D project
  • How to position yourself in research
