Course Aims: The final project report
must demonstrate students ability independantly to describe, analyse
and develop solutions of engineering problems.
The students must prove their ability of: - converting technical achievements plus scientific and technical
knowledge into use in development tasks and in solving technical
problems
- acquiring new knowledge, in a critical way, within relevant
engineering fields and thus independantly solve engineering problems
- including social, economic, environmental plus occupational
and environmental consequences in solving technical problems
- entering into managerial and interpersonal relations with people
of different educational and cultural bachground
- putting project results into perspective for a larger target
group.
Subject Matter: Problem-oriented project work bearing upon practical engineering
tasks including, among other things:
- Definition of the project (problem identification, objective)
- Independant acquisition of knowledge through literature etc.
- Application of theory in problems solving
- Use of engineering methods
- Organization and cooperation in the project
- Project management according to project plan with milestones
- Technical and economic aspects of the project
- Reportering and documentation.
Recommended Qualifications: Students must have passed all compulsory courses on semesters
1- 8.
Examination: The final project is evaluated in its entirety on the basis
of the written report, an oral presentation and the succeeding

The awarding of marks is based on the requirements indicated in
the course description as to subject matter. Each item is included
