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.

Five project examples from last year:

* Measuring flow rate using pulsed coherent radar

* High throughput plant phenotyping in an imaging experiment

* Autonomous surface vehicle for shallow water mapping

* Development of a user interface for a root detection algorithm

* Interactive topographic sandbox

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: https://youtu.be/yhVnDfe4IHs
