Aim:
The course aims to give knowledge and understanding concerning setup, planning, implementation and presentation regarding project work within the areas energy, materials science, thermodynamics and/or heat transfer.
- Identify, choose and apply relevant theoretical areas for a situation specific problem.
- Plan and realize an industrial and/or research related project within the area.
- Systematically integrate the knowledge acquired during their studies to run a project within the area.
- Utilize method and subject specific knowledge within the area of engineering materials.
- Analyze and evaluate technical solutions.
- Assimilate the contents of relevant literature and relate their work to it.

Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Thermodynamics, Engineering materials, Product development, Sustainable materials selection, Heat transfer, New materials.
Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Organisation:
The students are divided in smaller groups to perform their project. The project is run by the students in collaboration with the project owner and the students are expected to take a large responsibility to finalize the project. Since the course runs over the whole semester, a mid-term report should be handed in and presented orally half-way through the project. The project finishes with a written report and oral presentation. With the aim to practice a critical and constructive inspection of investigations and academic reports within the area each group shall review a report written by another group.

|
Course contents:
The focus of the project within this course is on the technology that shall contribute to sustainable development. The project work can contain a combination of problem analyses within the areas of materials science, thermodynamics and heat transfer and more advanced calculations of thermodynamic and energy relations. The project can be performed in close collaboration with industry, other local actor or be a part of an ongoing research project within the divisions of Engineering materials or Applied thermodynamics and fluid mechanics. The work is presented in a written report and orally on a seminar. Part of the course is also to perform a written and oral opposition on another project group.
