Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
The course consists of the implementation of a project in one's own disciplinary context, with associated documentation and presentation. This means choosing, analysing and processing a complex problem using methods and tools specific to their profession, as well as presenting this work professionally. In addition, course content includes supervision and informal discussions with teachers and working professionals. During the course, the students will provide evidence of their ability to methodically carry out projects, as well as reflect on knowledge and skills related to their own work.
Intended learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to develop the student's ability to handle actual problems and assignments in their own vocational branch.
On completion of the course, the student should be able to:
• tackle complex and incompletely formulated problems
• efficiently use methods and tools that are specific to their profession to plan, carry out and complete a project
• professionally present a project orally, graphically and in writing
• with well-developed and substantiated arguments account for success factors and impediments in a project
• reflect on and evaluate technical solutions, one's own work, and that of others
