Målsætning : To provide students with training in project work by solving an interdisciplinary engineering project supported by industry or is industry-oriented.
The subject areas for the project can, for example, be product innovation, mechanical structures, material optimization, environmental issues or energy optimization.
Learning objectives:
A student who has fully 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.
• Be a part of a team/group solving project problems in dialogue and by using the group complementary knowledge
• Make a timetable for the completion of the various steps of the project.
Hovedindhold : The project work can be a theoretical or practical investigation of an engineering problem. It will be done in cooperation with a company or a research institute, either in Denmark or abroad. Relevant technical topics and engineering methods. The project period starts with an introduction to the project management that is expected to be used during the project. At the end of week one there will an assessment. In addition to the theoretical part and the project work, the program involves relevant company visits and presentation training.
Undervisningsform : • The students are divided into project groups in which the project work will be developed.
• Problem Based Learning is a combination of theory, case studies and project work.
• Lessons will be based on interaction between lecturers presentations, tutorials and presentation of the acquired knowledge and on the principle “Learning by Teaching”.
• The teaching method will be based on examples, where students are provided with an outline proposal. The students develop a project proposal.

Anbefalede forudsætninger : Two years of ongoing higher education studies in Mechanical Engineering or a similar field.

Prøveform : Mundtlig evaluering på grundlag af udført projekt
