This course is the last in a series of Environomical Pathways courses given within the context of the EM MSc programme SELECT. From an overall perspective, it ties together methods for energy conversion assessment in a sustainability context that have been introduced in Year 1 of the programme.
The course is given by KTH to students located elsewhere in partner universities across Europe. It is thus a distance-based course where student groups, lecturers and project advisors come together using distance-based meeting technology.
In this course the student shall, under guidance of senior teachers at each one of the universities, perform a case study related to an industrial environomical energy conversion problem of the future. If possible, this case study can be a pre-study to their MSc thesis topic. The intermediate results will be presented at“remote seminars”throughout the semester and the final results of these case studies are supposed to attract significant industrial response as the case studies will all be of high present and future relevance, selected by the SELECT Steering Committee from suggestions from the academic as well as industrial partners.
