Introduction au module
This class introduces students to the foundations of artificial intelligence as a central driver of digital transformation, with a specific focus on sustainability and responsible innovation. Students explore how AI tools and techniques reshape organizational processes and support sustainable innovation. The week encourages students to critically assess both the opportunities and limitations of AI systems, and to reflect on how AI-driven digital transformation can be designed and deployed to deliver measurable social, environmental, and organizational impact, laying the groundwork for applied evaluation and project work in the next class.
Objectifs d'apprentissage
- 1.1 - Auditer les usages avancés et spécialisés des outils de l'intelligence digitale, afin de les mobiliser avec pertinence, en tenant compte du contexte stratégique des organisations.

Contribution à l'atteinte des ODD (Objets du Développement Durable)
ODD 9 — Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure: The week is fundamentally about AI-driven digital transformation and responsible innovation in organisations — this is the most direct fit.
ODD 10 — Reduced Inequalities: The ethics session explicitly addresses how AI can concentrate power, embed bias and widen inequality, and what can be done about it.
ODD 13 — Climate Action: Students examine AI applications for sustainability and the environmental cost of AI systems throughout the week.

Règlement du module
Professor-Student Communication
● The professor will contact the students through their school email address (IMT-BS/TSP) and the Moodle portal. No communication via personal email addresses will take place. It is the student responsibility to regularly check their IMT-BS/TSP mailbox.
● Students can communicate with the professor by emailing him/her to his institutional address. If necessary, it is possible to meet the professor in his office during office-hours or by appointment.
Students with accommodation needs
If a student has a disability that will prevent from completing the described work or require any kind of accommodation, he may inform the program director (with supporting documents) as soon as possible. Also, students are encouraged to discuss it with the professor.
Class behavior
● Out of courtesy for the professor and classmates, all mobile phones, electronic games or other devices that generate sound should be turned off during class.
● Students should avoid disruptive and disrespectful behavior such as: arriving late, leaving early, careless behavior (e.g. sleeping, reading a non-course material, using vulgar language, over-speaking, eating, drinking, etc.). A warning may be given on the first infraction of these rules. Repeated violators will be penalized and may face expulsion from the class and/or other disciplinary proceedings.
● The tolerated delay is 5 minutes. Attendance will be declared on Moodle during these 5 minutes via a QR code provided by the teacher at each course start.
● Student should arrive on time for exams and other assessments. No one will be allowed to enter the classroom once the first person has finished the exam and left the room. There is absolutely no exception to this rule. No student can continue to take an exam once the time is up. No student may leave the room during an examination unless he / she has finished and handed over all the documents.
● In the case of remote learning, the student must keep his camera on unless instructed otherwise by the professor.
Honor code
IMT-BS is committed to a policy of honesty in the academic community. Conduct that compromises this policy may result in academic and / or disciplinary sanctions. Students must refrain from cheating, lying, plagiarizing and stealing. This includes completing your own original work and giving credit to any other person whose ideas and printed materials (including those from the Internet) are paraphrased or quoted directly. Any student who violates or helps another student violate academic behavior standards will be penalized according to IMT-BS rules.
