L2: Forming project groups & Goal definition and scoping

First hour: How to set up and design a LCA study. Understanding this phase (Goal definition and scoping) of LCA is important for you to make an adequate and meaningful formulation for the topic of your project. This is necessary as background for the first project supervision meeting (PS1).

Second hour: We will discuss project ideas and form project groups (4 members per group). Please prepare before Lecture 2 by trying to think of areas and topics that you would like to work with in your projects.

NOTE: If you miss this lecture, you need to contact the course coordinator ASAP in order to make sure that you join a project group!!!
