Computer Science Department

Project-based teaching

Project-based learning is encouraged. Indeed, producing software for a company or association enables students to grasp the different aspects of the software life cycle, from the acquisition of requirements to delivery. Agile methods are covered, as well as human management, customer focus and tools to facilitate collaborative development.

Internships and work-study programs

Le stage est obligatoire à la fin de la première année de master. Il est d’une durée minimum de 2 mois et maximum de 4 mois. L’étudiant est indemnisé.
La deuxième année de master est principalement suivie en alternance sous contrat d’apprentissage. L’étudiant est salarié d’une entreprise. Il perçoit une rémunération tout au long de l’année et termine son cursus sur le rythme suivant : 2 semaines à l’école / 2 semaines en entreprise.

Year abroad

Students can spend the 3rd year of their bachelor's degree or the 1st year of their master's degree in a foreign partner institution: Ireland, Italy, Spain, Romania, etc.

Designer / Developer

Based on the analysis of user needs and the functional study, the developer will take part in the detailed specification phase, and implement the solution using the chosen technologies, while respecting deadlines and defined quality standards.

Functional analyst

The functional analyst's mission is to design an application from a functional point of view. To do this, they must analyze user needs and formalize them before proposing the most appropriate solutions.

IT Project Manager

Reporting to the design director or IT director, the project manager designs, develops, fine-tunes and delivers applications on behalf of a customer.

Information systems architect

The architect designs the various elements of an information system and the way they fit together. They also manage the system's evolution, in line with technological developments and business needs.

Testing and validation

The test and validation analyst carries out test scenarios and records the results, using his or her skills in development, integration and testing platforms and tools. He/she ensures that an application corresponds to the specifications, that it does not damage the information system, and that it can be used on all types of hardware and in all situations.

"Following an S baccalaureate, where I was introduced to programming, I joined the USMB computer science degree program. This academics course taught me the different basics of computer science, with a theoretical and practical component. Teamwork is encouraged throughout the academics , which is a real plus in my opinion. It also prepares us for more substantial projects, especially in the 2nd and 3rd years. One project I worked on with 4 other students was a multiplayer serious game. It's extremely gratifying to be able to present our work to the customer on a regular basis, and to understand the new ideas it triggers in them. I was then able to continue my studies in the IT Masters program, which enabled me to gradually define my career path, in particular through the work placement and the various fields studied (web architecture, mobile development, artificial intelligence, etc.). By concluding my studies with a work-study program, I was able to develop and demonstrate my skills by applying them to the problems of a cybersecurity company, which then hired me."

"When you go back to school after working, you enter the classroom with a different outlook. This was my case when I arrived in L3 STIC, in 2016. Behind my classmates who had done L1 and L2, I made rapid progress thanks to the balanced classes and practical work. If, like me, you are willing and passionate, the teaching team will be behind you and will ensure your follow-up throughout the academics. Although abstract at first glance, some subjects will end up making sense in your professional career.

More than just technical skills, I acquired an IT culture that enabled me to be effective quickly on any technology. Before the end of my sandwich course, I signed a permanent contract with the company of my choice.

"I enrolled in the STIC INFO program at the University of Savoie to resume my studies in Computer Science. I wanted to train for a job that combined scientific activity, teamwork and practical applications. At the university, I was able to learn the job of developer from attentive teachers. The comprehensive program and the fact that I was part of a group on a human scale enabled me to flourish in my studies and to find an interesting and motivating job as an engineer."

"I did my 2nd and 3rd year of a degree in Mathematics atUniversité Savoie Mont Blanc. The university then allowed me to change direction and go straight into a 3rd year Computer Science degree. I then went on to study for a Master's degree in Computer Science. This academics course gave me a huge amount of knowledge and skills, both practical and theoretical. It's an excellent preparation for the world of work. In the 1st year of the Master's program, the internship involved a technical and functional study of Google technologies. The 2nd year internship enabled me to join an IOS development team at a Savoy-based company specializing in smartphone software applications. I was taken on as soon as I finished my internship, and I can't see the time passing because I love what I'm doing so much!
