DEE-24906 Electrical Energy Engineering Project Work, 2-10 cr

Additional information

Before starting the project the student must get the preliminary project plan accepted by one of the available examiners. Credits earned from passing the project work are to be agreed with the examiner before starting. The amount of credits depend on scope and expected complexity of the topic as well as on the results. The supervisor may require student to upload the project report to Turnitin-system for originality check.

Study (literature survey/measurements/analysis/design/calculations/simulations/programming etc. depending on the subject) of the selected topic agreed by the examiner, written document and accepted oral presentation.

Learning Outcomes

The student can search for information from different sources, analyze and apply it as part of the project work. The student can combine and process information and write a technical document. Depending on the subject, the student can design and implement the measurement setups or calculation/simulation models needed and analyze the results or build and test prototypes. Main responsibility of the progress and completion of this course lies with the student while the examiner's role is to provide support and act as a mentor.
