HI1010 Computer Engineering Project 7.5 credits

Deepening and applying knowledge and skills from previous courses concerning:

• project management
• engineering methodology
• information technology
• computer programming
• operating systems
• digital and micro computer technology
• data communications and networks

In this course, the students, in project form, apply and deepen their knowledge of computer engineering and software development.
The project is implemented as introduced in the previous course, Engineering and Information Skills. In this course the students further develop their skills in project planning and problem solving in a project. Emphasis is on a clear requirement specification as a basis for the development of a software prototype.

After completing this course the student shall be able to:

• work according to general engineering methods
• budget a project according to given instructions
• time schedule a project according to given instructions
• handle the role as project leader
• establish and analyse a requirement specification, together with a clear specification of delimitations
• create a prototype or solution according to the given specifications
• describe the prototype or solution in the form of a written report

The student should, after completing this course, also have applied and deepened her/his knowledge of computer engineering and software development corresponding to the programs courses.

Basic knowledge in project management, information technology, engineering methodology, computer programming, operating systems, digital and micro computer technology and data communications and networks.

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

• PRO1 - Projekt, 3.0 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F
• PRO2 - Projekt, 4.5 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.

Project report and oral presentation, PRO1, 3 credits (ECTS) A-F. The exam contains both theoretical and practical portions.
Software prototype, PRO2, 4.5 credits (ECTS) A-F.

The final grade is based on all parts of the examination.
