Please note! Course description is confirmed for two academic years, which means that in general, e.g. Learning outcomes, assessment methods and key content stays unchanged. However, via course syllabus, it is possible to specify or change the course execution in each realization of the course, such as how the contact sessions are organized, assessment methods weighted or materials used.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
The course will strengthen the student s ability to apply the theoretical basis and methods of his field in multidisciplinary contexts working as part of a group whose members have different backgrounds. After having completed the course the student will have a better understanding on solving real-world problems in Life Science Technologies and to have learned to work as a member of a multidisciplinary expert team.

CONTENT, ASSESSMENT AND WORKLOAD
Content
Valid 01.08.2020-31.07.2022:
This project course combines the contents of multidisciplinary majors in the Life Science Technology for solution of real world problem in the field of life science technologies by a group of students coming from different majors of the Life Science Technologies.
Applies in this implementation:
Course contains project topics from different research groups as well
as occasionally from the industry that change on yearly basis. Students
will enroll to one of the projects and work with that topic, group and
the instructor during the whole course. All students need to participate
biweekly group meetings and submit short minutes from these occasions.
In addition, students have to submit their individual short progress
reports with small outlook for the next two weeks period. Deadlines for
both of these are identical and can be found from MyCourses pages.Students need
to reach
the
level
of 75% in the submission rate of group and individual reports to pass the course
Assessment Methods and Criteria
Valid 01.08.2020-31.07.2022:
Project work, interim presentation and final presentation. Assessment methods: self-assessment, peer assessment and assessment of the project instructor.
Applies in this implementation:
General assessment criteria for the whole course are publicly available in MyCourses pages of the course. Students
will
be
graded based on their performance during the
project work –
not
by
the
outcome of the project. All
gradings are done within a project – it is useless to compare between projects as they have different content and dynamics.
