february2019version 2
The first semester of the second year presents the different fields of applications of chemistry:
materials,polymers,biochemistry,energy)
Thesecondsemesteroffersachoiceoffiveoptionsinthesecondsemester:analyticalandbiological
chemistry (in English), processes, materials (in English), molecular chemistry, biotechnologies (in
exchangewithESPCI).Thelessonsbecomemorein-depthineachoption.
Themanagementcoursesfocusonlifeandworkinthecompany.
Studentscarryoutaninnovationprojectinagroupthroughouttheyear.Thisprojectissubmittedby

establishedwithcontrolledkinetics,preciseselectivityanddefinedreproducibility.Theoptimalimplementation
of chemical transformation requires knowing how to choose the most suitable reactor (batch reactors,
continuous stirred tank reactor, plug flow reactor, continuous, discontinuous operation), and to define the
operatingconditions.Firstwewillpresentthespecificitiesofthedifferentidealreactorsandtheircharacteristic

Theoretical courses cover themost importantmethodologies in all areas requiringmonitoring and analysis,
allowing access toquantitative informationand interaction in solutions. These areessentially separative and
electroanalytical methods, in classical or miniaturized form. The aspects of separation, sample processing,
coupling of separative methods with sensitive and specific detection methods (fluorescence, mass
spectrometry...)arethusaddressed.Inaddition,thetheme"qualitycontrol"ispresented,includingstandards,
traceabilityandlifecycleanalysis.Theengineerisincreasinglybeingaskedtocontrolthepurityandstabilityofa
product by traceable methods (analytical traceability of measurements, validation of a method, sampling,
calibration, statisticalmethods, reporting and archiving, regulation, proficiency testing), with a view to their
accreditation by the standards, which are now at an international level. In the context of sustainable
development,thelifecycleanalysis(orecobalance)ofproductsispresented.
