•Algorithmics / Introduction to Java (INSA-Lyon, F. Cycle Dept, 1rst year)

‣Discover pseudocode, flowcharts and control tables : structured ways to express algorithms that avoid many of the ambiguities common in natural language statements. Programming languages are primarily intended for expressing algorithms in a form that can be executed by a computer, but are often used as a way to define or document algorithms : introduction to java.

•Object Oriented Programming in Java (INSA-Lyon, F. Cycle Dept, 2nd year)

‣ Programming paradigm using "objects" – data structures consisting of data fields and methods together with their interactions – to design applications and computer programs. Programming techniques may include features such as data abstraction, encapsulation, messaging, modularity, polymorphism, and inheritance.

•Real-life Transdisciplinar Project (INSA-Lyon, F. Cycle Dept, 2nd year)

‣ The aim of this project is to use object-oriented programming as a tool to solve a real engineer problem. Teachers of Physics, Mechanics and Productics may propose subjects, that students will solve during the project. They must work in groups of 3 to 5 students.
