Course offered for

  • Design and Product Development

Entry requirements

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Prerequisites

Knowledge from the first years in a Mechanical Engineering program.

Intended learning outcomes

This course is aimed at applying skills from previous courses in machine design in a product development project. After the course the student should

  • Be able to apply concept generation and concept selection in a realistic project.
  • Be able apply modelling of product/system properties in the concept phase
  • Be able to do a project plan
  • Have experience fom working in a team with product development.

Course content

The course is based on a project that could be from industry or a relevant in-house project. The project contains concept generation and concept selection,  modelling of product/system properties in the concept phase,. project planning. To a varying degree, students will work with CAD-modelling, dynamic simulation and other analysis techniques, and bring that to a physical realization. The course also contains some lectures on project specific technology. One theme that has been used several years is based on sustainable personal transport.

Teaching and working methods

The course is carried as a project with regular meetings. In addition there are lectures in project specific technology. The result from the project is a design of product, a physical demonstrator a written report. 
The course runs over the entire qutumn semester.
