Toteutustapa ja opetusmenetelmät

This is an independent course that each student is required to carry out in their own individual manner. The course does not involve lectures or fixed contact hour.

As one of several different project courses in the environmental technology education curricula, for which the teachers do not organise separate courses you can generally complete the course in one of two different ways:
1) By participating in project/innovation events organised by LAB or another university/company
2) By carrying out a project for your own workplace, or on a relevant topic that interests you. In each case we must first approve the suitability of the chosen topic.
Instructions for carrying out this course and the documentation for it can be found from the common project Moodle site called Sustainable Solutions Projects.

Ajoitus ja läsnäolo

The course can be completed at a time that best suits the student's own schedule.
Project studies can also be completed in various project study units organised by LAB and other higher education institutions (for example Lahti Venture Program), in which case the scheduling of these study courses is followed.
Projects completed at the workplace can also be credited for project studies.

Opiskelijan ajankäyttö ja kuormitus

The calculated workload of the course is 135 hours, which consists of the time spent on the project itself, getting to know the subject area, making a project plan, reporting and reflecting. Time use for the project is monitored by working hours.
If the student replaces the studies, these guidelines are followed with a project study package offered by another entity.

Arviointimenetelmät

The final report accounts for 70% of the project's overall grade. 30% of the project grade comes from the research plan. An evaluation matrix is used to evaluate the final report. The areas to be evaluated are described in Moodle in the file Assessment criteria for the research plan and final report.
