Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
Intended learning outcomes
After passing the course, the student should be able to:
- use relevant models and practical methods to prepare, compare and suggest sustainable solutions to an production engineering related problem supplied by industry
- use knowledge and skills from earlier courses in the master programme in Production Engineering and Management, and acquire new knowledge when necessary
- write a well-structured technical report that clearly describes the assignment, the methodology used for implementing and solving it, and clearly reports the results
- orally present and justify the project results
- provide arguments for chosen working methods and presented result and their reliability when it is exposed to criticism
- give constructive criticism on an equivalent production engineering related project work
- organise, handle and lead a complex and long-lasting project, in collaboration with project sponsors and group members
- analyse and document one's own contribution to the implementation and result of the project
