| Målsætning : | To acquire new knowledge in a major area of mechanical engineering, such as product development, machine design, energy processes or materials, where the quality of the project work is the main issue. A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to: • Demonstrate independent critical reflection on the limitations of the proposed solution of the problem at hand. • Apply technical knowledge to real-life complex problems. • Acquire a holistic understanding and use non-technical aspects. • Use knowledge and experience from the first four semesters of the study programme. • Make a timetable for the completion of the various steps of the project course. |
||
| Hovedindhold : | The project work can be a theoretical or practical investigation of an engineering problem. It can also be done in cooperation with a company or a research institute, either in Denmark or abroad. Relevant technical topics and engineering methods. Nontechnical considerations and assessments. These can be - Management - Economical - Environmental - Working conditions - Ergonomical - Aesthetical - Ethical - Social - Cultural |
||
| Undervisningsform : | Project supervision. The project work should normally be done individually and independently; however, a group of two students is also permitted in special cases. Each student in the project group is responsible for both the project as a whole and own contribution to the project. The project work should be finalized by writing a report and making an oral presentation before the final examination. The project group should keep the supervisor(s) updated on the progress of the project. | ||
| Krævede forudsætninger : | All the obligatory courses and semester projects should be passed. | ||
| Relationer : | The individual project in mechanical engineering should be related to the major topics of the mechanical engineering programme. This course can also be related to the Bachelor Project and can therefore serve as an introduction to the topics needed in the Bachelor Project. | ||
| Prøveform : | Mundtlig evaluering på grundlag af udført projekt | ||
| Censur : | Ingen | ||
| Bedømmelse : | 7-trinsskala | ||
| Bemærkninger : | The assessment of the project will be based on the final report as well as on the project presentation and the conversation with the examiners. In addition, the student communication skills will be assessed and constitute 10% of the final grade. Each student of the project group should elaborate on his or her contribution to the project. | ||
| Undervisningsmateriale : | Will be based on independent literature research. | ||
| Ansvarlig underviser : | Imad Abou-Hayt
