The course consists mainly of project based teamwork such as planning, technical design, experimental investigations and manufacturing. In addition regular informative and decisive project meetings are held and frequent informal discussions with teachers. Opportunities to practice leading roles such as project manager, group leader and treasurer could occur. A number of relevant guest lectures in topics ranging from purely technical to project management and communication techniques are planned, normally after consultation with the course participants.
