Professionalisation

Avignon University Institute of Technology provides academic knowledge, know-how and interpersonal skills. The ultimate aim of the course is to give students the opportunity to reflect on their personalities and their career plans, and to encourage their learning through practical work, tutorials, team projects, work placements or sandwich courses in companies. Ultimately, the course provides skills that are recognised in the business world, with which the IUT maintains a number of partnerships in training, of course, but also in research and technology transfer.

Graduates therefore enter the job market with a solid education, which is highly valued by companies.
With the University Bachelor of Technology, l'IUT d'Avignon University aims to increase the level of professionalism among its students.

The GOAL is :

• a national programme developed in conjunction with socio-economic partners,
• local adaptations amounting to 30%, to better meet the needs of local businesses, associations and institutions,
• a new teaching approach based on skills and blocks of skills, centred on practical work situations and periods spent in companies as work placements or sandwich courses.

EAS Learning and Assessment Situations

Under the responsibility of a teaching tutor, a group of students carry out a professional project for a client: a company, professional federation or any other type of organisation. These projects (technical, event-related or humanitarian) are an opportunity for students to work in a professional situation, on a concrete case in which they must show autonomy and initiative. You can suggest a subject for a tutored project to the secretariat of the relevant degree.

Internships

Students complete a minimum 10-week work placement during their 2nd year of the B.U.T. and 12 to 16 weeks in the 3rd year.
This not only gives them an insight into the business world, but also enables them to refine their own project. These placements often give companies the opportunity to get to know their future employees.

Alternation

Work-linked training is a teaching method that combines university teaching with professional practice: the academic year is divided between periods of teaching and periods spent working for a company or public body. Work-linked training provides solid experience in the field, making it easier to find a job. The work-study student is both a student and an employee.
The third year of our B.U.T. is available under an apprenticeship contract.
