Intended learning outcomes

After finished thesis work the student shall be able to:

  • identify and formulate engineering design problems and search for solutions with the aid from model-based methods and modern computer tools;
  • reflect on which models that are most suitable to use in different phases of an industrial project;
  • shape and dimension a system component and then verify the properties of the system;
  • apply, value and integrate obtained knowledge and abilities on problems in the chosen domain of specialization;
  • independently deepen the personal engineering knowledge in the subject area;
  • present the work in a written thesis and as an oral presentation.
