Recherche actuelle
Technologies de conversion
Ce nouveau domaine de recherche s'insère dans une vision systémique du rôle de la science et de
la technologie dans un monde complexe où les approches disciplinaires et linéaires sont désormais
insuffisantes pour répondre aux contraintes et aux besoins sociaux. Selon notre vision, l'ingénieur
est le nouvel humaniste du XXIe siècle, devenant l'intégrateur et le modélisateur des systèmes
complexes et non homogènes caractéristiques des problèmes environnementaux.
