Topic outline

  • General

    • Hi all

      The course will start on Friday Sept 15th (9:15-11:00)  with a kick-off session. There, I will introduce the course and then there will be pitching of the topics by clients. Place: Lecture room Titanium (Vuorimiehentie 2).

      You should preferably have knowledge on polymeric materials (both natural and synthetic) in order to carry out successful project work in your team.

    • After the topic pitching by the clients (15.9.2023) the students prepare motivation letters where they justify why they would be the right persons for a certain task/topic. You rank the topics in the order of your interest.

      The following steps are:

      • Selection of members for the teams vs. topic (companies/”clients”)

      • Team formation – role setting

      • A detailed start-up with the supervisor of the chosen topic

      • Progress as rehearsed during CHEM-E2160 - Product Development Practices, (pre-requisite for students in this major!)

      – Role setting and team leading important

      – Task clarification

      – Requirement list

      – Function recognition

      – Variant survey

      – Solution assessment and grading

      – Hands on to the literature, materials and structures, construction, lab work, all what is necessary…

      – Keep record on your actions (“black notebook” paper or e-form) – to be checked weekly
