    Evaluation

    You will be assessed on:

    • a written report in English, no more than 6 pages long, in the format of an IEEE journal research article (cf template at the end of this section). Only pdf format is accepted. Optimize the PDF by reducing the final file size.
    • an oral presentation consisting of 15 minutes followed by 15 minutes of questions + few questions on TTU for M1 students. Have a pdf file of your slides!

    Written Report Guidelines

    • All reports must include an introduction, the main body of the report, a conclusion, and bibliographic references. The introduction aims to establish the project's objectives, define the problem, and position the solutions studied in relation to existing ones. Bibliographic references are essential in this section to support your presentation. The conclusion should summarize the results obtained, the issues identified, and potential future prospects.
    • All figures must be cited and commented on in the text. Each figure must be legible, including figures, and have axis titles, units where applicable, and a key.
    • Respect the general format: spelling, grammar, and typography (note that typographical rules are different in English!).
    • Beware of plagiarism: your file will be checked by an anti-plagiarism system.

    Instructions for the oral presentation

    • Be present well in advance of your scheduled time slot.
    • Oral presentation: 15 minutes followed by 15 minutes of questions. Keep to the allotted time.
    • File in PDF format on a USB drive and eventually, additionally, on your computer (whatever the format then).
    • Allow 1 to 1.5 minutes per slide. You should therefore have approximately 12-15 slides. Be careful: there's no point in making 30 slides and rushing through them: this will hinder comprehension.
    • When presenting orally, avoid large tables that are difficult to read from a distance, or circle the boxes that are of interest.
    • Avoid written sentences! You need keywords.
    • Avoid scanned figures, which are often illegible.
    • Avoid illegible axis titles and illegible figures.
    • Avoid chained equations; only highlight what is important.
    • Conclusion: Don't include a conclusion on a slide; instead, use a slide with keywords related to the conclusion: reframe the topic, what we tried to achieve, whether it was successful or not, what original solutions were proposed, and possibly a personal assessment of what the internship brought to you, and some perspectives.
