*: Courses marked with an asterisk are breakable: students can choose to validate only the first half of the course. In that case, the course counts for 3 ECTS.

Language: means the course is in English, means it is in French. means the teachers will adapt to the students. (Typically, this means course materials are in English, but the language during lectures will be adapted to the audience; see the course page for more information.)
