Project 2
Prerequisites
The transdisciplinary team project 2 (project 2) is a compulsory module in the degree programmes Mechanical Engineering B.Eng., Mechatronics B.Eng. and Rail Vehicle Technology B.Eng.
As a prerequisite for participation, you must have passed all examinations in the first and second semesters (§11 of the Examination Regulations) and have successfully participated in the transdisciplinary team project 1 (project 1 - "pro8"). The fulfilment of the prerequisites will be checked when registering the grade for Project 2; recognition is only possible in this case.
Result
The project result is assessed by the project supervisor. The assessment criteria must be agreed with the supervising professor at the beginning of the project.
Documentation of the project must be prepared and submitted. The result of the project is to be presented by the team at the end of the semester. The framework for this is agreed with the supervising professor.
Materials
The script from the transdisciplinary team project 1 (project 1 "pro8") of the 2nd semester is available for the implementation of the project (pro8). This describes methods for co-operation in the group, the procedure and the documentation. There are also documents available for creating documentation. Specialised information will be discussed with the supervising professor.
Topic
Project 2 can be an industry project or a university project.
The faculty publishes a list of possible topics and the names of the supervisors on the Internet (project list further down on this page, please also note any notices). However, it is also possible for a team to propose its own topic (industry or university project), naming a supervising professor within the faculty.
Depending on the Examination Regulations, a workload of 180 hours per student must be estimated for the realisation and degree of the project. The project can be carried out in the summer or winter semester. A detailed schedule must be agreed with the supervising professor at the beginning of the project. As a rule, the project must be completed within 6 months of starting.
