Realise a project idea with help from goal-oriented students

In the 15 credits course Design-Build-Test starting in September, students from the civil engineering programs in biotechnology, engineering physics, computer science, mechanical engineering, and industrial economics work in teams of 6-8 people for five months with innovative projects. They receive training in agile project management and group development, and combine their skills to help you realise your project.

Three project examples from last year:

* Automatic tree phenotyping. Image analysis and modelling from automatic tree phenotyping platform.

* Measuring albedo with a drone. Design, build and testing of albedo sensors.

* Relating acoustic waves to wood characteristics of Norway spruce.

Posters from these and other projects can be found here:

Bernard Wessels and Judith Felten have made a short video about the scientific background and project management of their project on measuring stem movement in tilted hybrid aspen:
