Toteutustapa ja opetusmenetelmät
This course, Technical Cycles, is part of the 15 ECTS module: Introduction to sustainable solutions engineering, containing three different courses which are implemented partly in parallel and integrated during the autumn semester. The main part of the theoretical content of the course is covered through a MOOC course with a similar name and contents, which is integrated into the course´s Moodle. The course contains an excursion, an applied ecodesign project, team work and reading club sessions.
Ajoitus ja läsnäolo
The course/module will start in week 37, during which a more detailed course schedule and assignments will be presented. The Technical Cycles course consists of 3-4 full-day sessions, which may include excursions, projects, group work, and theoretical background. Attendance at the course's face-to-face teaching sessions is recommended; absences must be agreed with the course's responsible teachers. Students can independently complete the MOOC course included in the course according to their own schedule.
Oppimateriaali ja suositeltava kirjallisuus

Sisältö
This course focuses on technical and material cycles, especially non-renewable natural resources. It aim is to highlight the importance of responsible production and consumption, based on the principles of the circular economy. Also the principles of sustainable value chains, design and examples of circular economy models will become familiar during the course.
