Main purpose
To document the ability to work efficiently and self-driven in collaboration with others as a Mechanical Engineer.
To deliver expected results in time and acting proactive to reach the project goal.
The purpose of the PBL part of the course is for the students to apply their personal and project competencies from the previous semester projects in a practice-oriented and complex bachelor project.
Knowledge
A profound understanding of natural scientific issues, applied engineering, experimental qualifications and IT tools. It is an objective that the graduates develop qualifications to function as a mechanical engineer within the field of research and development
PBL:
• Can explain theories and methods used in the project.
• Can critically acquire new knowledge
Skills
- Assess new knowledge independently and argue for its strategic application in project work, demonstrating the ability to effectively incorporate innovative ideas into practical solutions.
- Evaluate, select, and apply technologies that are relevant for the specific circumstances of the project.
- Argue for the relevance of technologies selected for the project, both in relation to the specific project and in the larger context of contemporary technologies and best practices.
PBL:
- Can search for and select the best suited theories and methods for the project.
- Can apply selected theories and methods to the project.
- Can participate in and take responsibility for professional collaboration.
- Can communicate both orally and in writing the results of the project as well as the process.
Competences
1. Translate technical research results as well as scientific and technical knowledge to practical application in in solving technical problems.
2. Critically acquire and apply new knowledge within relevant fields of engineering.
3. Solve occurring engineering tasks independently.
4. Conceive, design and implement technical and technological systems and whenever relevant pay the necessary considerations to social, economic, environmental and occupational health topics.
5. The degree in mechanical engineering at VIA University College furthermore aims to qualify graduates to perform work functions, where the main objectives are product development and design of machines and systems.
PBL:
• Can plan and structure a complex project.
• Can perform a practice-oriented project in accordance with a plan.
• Can reflect on the results of the project in a professional, holistic and ethical perspective
Topics
Teaching methods and study activities
The project work is to follow the setup defined in the approved ME-BPR1 project description and thus to considered in conjunction with this.
The project work is ideally performed in groups of approx. 3-4 students.
The budgeted workload for each student is approximately 410 hours.
Total allocated supervision per project group is approximately 15 hours.
Resources
All course curriculum from previous and existing semesters including self-gained knowledge.
Evaluation
Examination
Exam prerequisites:
None
Type of exam

The whole group will present the project followed by an individual examination with the whole group present.
Total durance approx:
• Group presentation: 20 minutes.
• Individual examination: 15 minutes/ student
• Evaluation and feedback per group: 30 minutes
External censor
The basics for the examination are the project report (including product description, process report and appendices) handed in
before deadline and the joint presentation of the project
Reexam:
As ordinaty
