Semester: winter/summer semester
Start: upon agreement
Credit Points: 6 CP
Length of assignment: The total duration between the start of the assignment and the final presentation should not be less than 2 months and should not exceed 6 months.
An Advanced Research or Design Project is designed for students of mechanical engineering as interdisciplinary teamwork. An extensive task of a scientific, constructive or system-technical nature from mechanical engineering is to be solved independently in an interdisciplinary team, i.e. by students from different disciplines. While an ARP focuses more on the theoretical elaboration of scientific topics, the focus of an ADP is the application of the methods of CAD modeling, FEM calculation and MBS simulation.
The main focus of the advanced research /design project is the independent work of an engineering problem by a student. The student is coached by a research assistant of the PLCM.
The content worked out by the student have to be demonstrated in an interim and final presentation. In addition the student has to do a written report on his acitivities.
