Grading scale
The grade requirements within the course grading system are set out in specific criteria. These criteria must be available by the course start at the latest.
Language
SwedishPrior knowledge
- 130 credits in the Energy Systems Engineering Programme, including 10 credits at advanced level.- English 6 from Swedish Upper Secondary School (a Swedish Bachelor of Science exam fulfils the requirement for English)
Objectives
The project work gives the student training to plan, implement and present research- or development assignments, working independently or in a team. The aim is also to apply, deepen and broaden the knowledge from previous courses within the energy systems engineering programme.
On completion of the course the student should be able to
independently formulate and solve problems scientifically, and perform tasks within given time frames.
search for and process knowledge needed for performing a project
show deep knowledge on the topic of the project
perform quantitative assessments of the functions of different systems or subsystems
apply their knowledge to achieve a set objective
compile and report the results of the project orally and in writing.
Content
Performance of an independent project, individually or in collaboration with one or several other students. Project performed in collaboration between students from different universities and/or with different academic backgrounds are encouraged. The task is selected in dialogue with the supervisor, the subject reviewer and the examiner.
The project shall
be a development or research project of relevance to the energy systems subject and will be performed in close connection to an ongoing research or development project at a university department, a company, a public body, or other organization, with guidance from a supervisor.
be at advanced level in the technology subject and make use of knowledge from previous advanced courses in the programme
cover quantitative assessments of the functions of systems or subsystems, for example through modelling, simulation, statistical data analysis, experiments or optimization. The quantitative assessements should be at a level where numerical methods or advanced analytical methods are required.
The student will independently:
find a project by contacting the workplace and its representatives (normally the future supervisor)
develop a project plan with support from the supervisor
perform the work by gathering knowledge from various Swedish and international sources, including scientific journals
write a project report in Swedish or English (the report should have a summary in the language in which it is not written)
make a self-evaluation of the report
make an oral presentation of the project
The teaching consists of individual supervision. The course includes subject-integrated training of communication skills.
Grading form
The grade requirements within the course grading system are set out in specific criteria. These criteria must be available by the course start at the latest.Formats and requirements for examination
Approved oral and written presentation of project work. In cases where the project work has been done in group, the individual contributions are documented (e.g. in a logbook) and reported in the project report and during the oral presentation.
If there are special circumstances, the examiner may make exceptions from the specified examination method and allow other methods for examination of individual students. Special circumstances can e.g. be that you have been granted targeted support by SLU’s support coordinator for students with disabilities.
If a student has failed an examination, the examiner has the right to issue supplementary assignments. This applies if it is possible and there are grounds to do so.
The examiner can provide an adapted assessment to students entitled to study support for students with disabilities following a decision by the university. Examiners may also issue an adapted examination or provide an alternative way for the students to take the exam.
If this syllabus is withdrawn, SLU may introduce transitional provisions for examining students admitted based on this syllabus and who have not yet passed the course.
For the assessment of an independent project (degree project), the examiner may also allow a student to add supplemental information after the deadline for submission. Read more in the Education Planning and Administration Handbook.
Other information
The right to participate in teaching and/or supervision only applies for the course instance the student was admitted to and registered on.
If there are special reasons, students are entitled to participate in components with compulsory attendance when the course is given again. Read more in the Education Planning and Administration Handbook.
Additional information
Applications for the course must be submitted to the examiner on a special form. The proposal should include a workplace, a supervisor and a subject reviewer, and it should be approved by the examiner before the course start. The course may be conducted at any study period of the year. Only one Advanced Project Work in Energy Systems Engineering course can be included in the examination requirements for the Energy Systems Engineering Programme.Responsible department
