Other (oral presentation and discussion)

The student will present the major results obtained during the internship in the form of a poster (+/- 80 cm by 150 cm). The poster will be displayed and presented to the members of the Master's Jury during a day organized during the June or September session.

Mark calculation method (including weighting of intermediary marks)

The grade will be awarded by the members of the jury who will attend the presentation, based on the quality of the poster and the presentation made by the student.
The promoter of the internship will also be consulted to know his impressions on the quality of the work carried out by the student. The positive (or negative) opinion will also be taken into account to modulate the final grade.
