further development.
Competences
- Be able to handle development-oriented situations in connection
to either studying or working.
- Be able to analyse and solve an actual problem of industrial
relevance through application of systematic research and
development processes, including advanced analytical, experimental
and/or numerical methods and models.
- Be able to use the correct terminology in oral, written or
graphical communication and documentation of challenges and
solutions within the field of specialization.
- Participate in and independently carry out technological
development and research, as well as solve complex tasks using
scientific methods.
- Perform planning, implementation and management of complex and
unpredictable research and / or development tasks and assume a
professional responsibility for completing independent academic
tasks as well as interdisciplinary collaborations.
- Independently take responsibility for own professional
development and specialization.
Type of instruction
The project work is carried out as an independent work process
in which the students themselves organize and coordinate their
workload in collaboration with a supervisor.
The project may be carried out individually or in groups.
Extent and expected workload
Since it is a 20 ECTS project module the expected workload is
600 hours for the student.
