Objective

The knowledge and applying of Development Techniques is basic requirement for innovative problem solving.

You will sufficiently design, implement and manage quality improvement projects in various industrial sectors. In addition, you will learn to choose and use the necessary development tools and techniques.

Your competence is beginning to grow through understanding the basic concepts and terminology of the quality development and controlling. You will further develop to knowing, selecting and last implementing them to solve real problems.

After you have passed to course, you can solve simple production development problems using suitable quality development techniques. In other words, you learn to develop operations etc.

ENGINEERING PRACTICE:
You can select and use development and problem-solving methods/tehniques to solve problems. You are capable of creative problem-solving and production processes development.

INVESTIGATIONS AND INFORMATION RETRIEVAL:
You have the ability to conduct literature searches and use databases and other sources of information in your development work.

Teaching methods

Lähiopetus, mahdollinen etäopetus, tiedonhaku ja soveltavat oppimistehtävät joko yksilökohtaisesti tai ryhmätöinä. Oppimispäiväkirja.

Ongelmalähtöisen oppimisen kautta opiskelijoilla on oppimistehtäviä ratkottavana. Tehtäviä tehdään pääosin ryhmissä, mutta etätoteutuksessa palautukset ovat aina yksilökohtaisia.

Opintojaksosta kerätään sen puolivälissä vapaamuotoinen anonyymi palaute.

Exam schedules

Tentti viikolla 48 (29.11-3.12.2021).
Kaksi uusintatenttimahdollisuutta; tammikuussa 2022 ja helmikuussa 2022.

Student workload

5 op:
Luennot 40 h, oppimistehtävät 40 h ja itsenäinen työskentely 55 h. Yhteensä 135 h oppimistyötä.

Further information

Oppimistehtävissä jatkuva kehittävä palaute, itsearvioinnit ja tiimin itsearviointi
