Abstract

Abstract: The current international trend of grouping together several engineering institutions leads to large-scale student classes. This raises numerous challenges for spreading the engineering science at a broad range but also offers the opportunity to build the premises for up-to-date educational innovations. The aim of this paper is to propose a modular and easily extendable database, with a user-friendly interface, allowing to handle a multitude of student projects in the field of engineering. In order to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed framework, a case study on the implementation of the database for handling 300 projects in the context of the course Model Representations and Analysis given at CentraleSupélec to 900 students during the school year 2021-2022 is reported.
