Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
Intended learning outcomes
After the course the participant should be able to:
- Apply knowledge and skills from previous courses, in particular in Engineering Mechanics.
- Formulate and specify problems in engineering mechanics and apply different methods of solution to these as well as judge the relevance of different methods.
- Study independently with the aim of consolidating and deepening of already acquired knowledge in engineering mechanics.
- Present solutions of complex and basic engineering mechanics problems in a written technical report with demands on content, structure and use of language.
- Present the work orally in a professional way.
- Explain the basics of some general engineering attributes such as ethics, career planning and entrepreneurship.
