Problem based project organised work in groups. The project can be a disciplinary project, a cross disciplinary project or a part of a multi-disciplinary project, where several groups from the department do different parts of a larger project. Finally, the project can also be a part of a so-called MEGA project, where several project groups from more departments are participating, each doing their part of the large project to find a total solution.
The project should be based on a mechanical, electrical, process system, etc. used in the offshore energy area. The set-up system should be analysed, and models and simulations of the system are to be made. Different methods are to be applied to find the parameters of the system. The set-up models should be verified by experimental test either directly on a real offshore system or on a model or parts of the scaled systems set up in the laboratory.
The project work must be documented in a scientific way by a summary report, a paper and a poster as described in “Additional Information”.
Since it is a 15 ECTS project module, the work load is expected to be 450 hours for the student

Sustainable Energy Engineering
(For students with a Bachelor’s degree from Aalborg University)
(not INTRO)
1. Demands to the project documentation
The project should fulfil the objectives of the 1st semester
project theme and should be documented to an acceptable technical
and scientific level. The documentation shall include a scientific
paper and a poster, which shall fulfil the standard for an
international conference, e.g. the IEEE specifications. Moreover,
the documentation shall include a project summary report - see
below.
2. Project documentation
The following material must be uploaded to the system “Digital
Exam” on the date given for the submission:
3. Conference participation
The paper must be presented, by one or more group members at a
conference arranged within the Department of Energy Technology. The
conference will be run in the same manner as an international
conference. The project poster must also be presented at this
conference. All group members must attend the conference and the
poster session to be allowed to participate in the project
examination.
4. Project summary report
The project summary report should elaborate the project details and
conclusions. The maximum length of the summary report (report
without appendices) is 50 pages, and in addition the summary
report should follow the rules as laid down by the Study Board in
“Procedure for Project Work”, i.e. the total number of pages must
not exceed 30 + 15 × number of students in the project group.
5. Project exam
The project evaluation will take place at a later date than the
conference.
At the project examination the project group shall present its project work in accordance to the Examination Policies and Procedures, Addendum to the Joint Programme Regulations
The presentation and assessment of the project is conducted in English.
