OVERVIEW
The Bachelor BIHAR & eBIHAR from the École Supérieure des Technologies Industrielles Avancées (ESTIA) lays the foundations for careers in applied AI and data engineering. It comes in two ECTS-certified tracks:
- ESTIA "Engineering" Bachelor: on-site and work-study.
- eMIAGE Licence: the 100% distance version of the eBIHAR Bachelor, with eMIAGE courses.
Both tracks share a 100-hour ESTIA common core — "The concepts and standards of applied AI and data engineering" — then differ in their specialty courses and industrial tools.
The Bachelor prepares for the four major skill blocks of the BIHAR programmes: (Big) Data Engineering, AI Engineering, Full Stack Development, Cloud Architectures & Cybersecurity. It provides a direct bridge to ESTIA's Master of Science BIHAR / eBIHAR after thematic reconversion.
Four free Datum Academy MOOCs must be completed as prerequisites before the programme begins.
COURSES
COMMON CORE (100 h) : "Fundamental concepts of applied AI and Big Data" (5 courses of 20 h):
- AI by Example: introduction to AI through practice (R and Python).
- Generative AI (with workshop): multimodal prompt engineering and generation of text, image, sound, video (LLM, RAG).
- Generative AI for Managers: managerial use cases of generative AI.
- Machine Learning & Deep Learning by Example: neural networks, applied Deep Learning.
- SQL & Big Data by Example: Codd's relational model, SQL2, DBMS seminars (normalization, optimization, OLAP, access methods).
