Aim of the event:
The primary goal of the project seminar is to introduce the students to interdisciplinary real world problems. As during the education at the university main theoretical foundations are learned this seminar will foster the application of respective knowledge on complex engineering problems. The students will work in small teams together in order to learn aspects regarding project management and interdisciplinary work. The tasks performed in this seminar will be strongly application driven. Furthermore soft skills as presentation techniques shall be learned during this seminar. Due to a intended variety of activities students will be taught to solve especially those interdisciplinary problems, which have not been major part during their studies yet.
Target group:
Students in the scientific area of mechanical engineering, engineering economics, computational engineering and business informatics
Contents:
This Seminar will teach the students different approaches towards process and technology analysis. Based on respective results the development of improved solutions including the applicatione of systematic approaches will be emphasised in the seminar. The requirements analysis in professional practice is one of the main issues which will be communicated to the students. Resulting requirements are deducted on the basis of changing topics related to real research or industrial based projects. This approach will deepen the insight of professional practice to the participants of the project seminar. Contents will be technologies, processes and different applications.
The application of these methods will enable the students to analyse different real world tasks based on planning aspects, feasibility of developed solutions, ecological aspects as well as economic issues. Through the consideration of aspects in design and planning optimization potential shall be maximised.
The students will perform the work in small groups and present their results regularly to experts of professional practice and discuss their presentation as well as the methodology of planning, work and design. A detailed feedback by experts on the exposure will foster the students’ ability to develop their presentation skills.
