FAG3202 Life Cycle Assessment, Advanced Course 7.5 credits

The topic of the course is Life Cycle Assessment methodology.

The course should give students knowledge on current issues within the area of life cycle assessment and advanced knowledge on some specific methodological aspect.

When starting the course the students should have basic practical knowledge of Life Cycle Assessment for example from a basic course, or by having done a published life cycle assessment or equivalent.

Kurslitteraturen består dels av en del som är gemensam för alla studenterna och dels en del som väljs individuellt av studenterna i samråd med kursansvarige. Den gemensamma litteraturen väljs så att det ger en översikt över aktuella forskningsfrågor inom området livscykelanalyser och ger studenterna en gemensam bas. Den individuella litteraturen väljs så att studenterna kan fördjupa sig i någon specifik frågeställning. Kurslitteraturen omfattar normalt ca 500 sidor och består huvudsakligen av vetenskapliga artiklar.

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

• INL1 - Homework, 7.5 credits, grading scale: P, F

The ccourse requirements are one accepted paper and active participation in the seminars.
