Application of skills

Project

Scientific case study analysis

The projects come together in specific subjects. Students learn through scientific case study analysis (articles, protocols, patents). Using the experience of professional teachers in the Expertise cycle, students acquire certain reflexes in their work adapted to their future career.

Common theme

The ‘common theme’ projects call on each student to go further in the acquisition of technical and managerial skills required. The study year ends with an important presentation day where each project team has to prove they have fulfilled all the fixed objectives.

Role play

Students are urged more and more to prepare themselves for their future manager careers. They are subjected to simulated job interviews in both French and English. They also spend half a day at the Labour Court.  

SBIP : SupBiotech Innovation Project

Finally the student has 6 months to finalize the SBIP proof of concept. At the same time they have to draw up the final report relating to their innovative project, which will essentially summarize the whole development project. 

Work placements

Session for finding the 1st job

Support workshops for career plans: CV, cover letters, job interview simulations, skill workshops, salary negotiation workshops, workshops on how to manage phone interviews, job market workshops with APEC and Kelly Life Sciences, use of social networks, participation in the SB Career Day in October.

6-month end of studies internship

The home stretch before starting in a company is the 6 month internship where students can show their full worth and assert their acquired skills. It often serves as a stepping stone to employment.
