Bachelor in Licence - Informatique

The Licence - Informatique (Degree in Computer Science) introduces students to the fundamental principles and practical techniques of computing. The curriculum covers algorithms and data structures, programming in several languages, operating systems, databases, computer networks, software engineering, formal methods, and elements of theoretical computer science including logic and computability. Students learn to design, implement, test, and maintain software solutions, and to reason systematically about computational problems and the correctness of programs. Mathematics plays a supporting role throughout the programme, with courses in discrete mathematics and probability underpinning the more technical content. The degree also introduces students to topics such as security, human-computer interaction, and the organisation of large-scale systems, which are increasingly important in contemporary computing environments. Project work, often carried out in small teams, develops the collaborative and communication skills needed in professional software environments alongside the technical competences that define the field. Students are expected to become proficient in writing well-structured code and in documenting their work clearly. Offered at Le Mans Université in Le Mans, France, this bachelor-level programme runs for 3 years. Teaching is in French and tuition is 178 EUR per year. The academic year begins in September. Graduates are well positioned for careers in software development, systems administration, data engineering, IT consulting, and cybersecurity, or for progression to master's programmes in computer science, artificial intelligence, or information systems.
