Independent and self-organized teamwork, the ability to investigate complex problems systematically and analytically and to develop solutions to problems are essential elements of engineering work in companies. This applies equally to the analysis of technical functions, issues and situations. Students work independently and self-organized in teams or groups. They systematically and analytically investigate new and complex research-related problems.

1. Analysis of the task and definition of objectives
2. Creation of schedule and milestone plan
3. Research and information procurement
4. Analysis of the data
5. Development of possible solution concepts
6. Technical evaluation of selected solutions
7. Presentation of the results

The total workload for the module is 150 hours (see also "ECTS credit points and grading").

• Project Report, written

In addition to a written report, the results are presented in a presentation.

Written project report: 10 - 30 pages per examinee

Successful completion of the first year of the Master's program, basic project management and scientific work

Students apply scientific methods and work techniques within the framework of a limited application project with a research focus. They also master project management methods.

Students have an extended and in-depth knowledge of a selected subject area and the necessary engineering methods. The subject area is determined by the choice of the problem to be worked on.

Students formulate research questions, identify and analyze relevant literature and data on the project. They scrutinize existing solutions and concepts and critically assess the effectiveness and impact of the solutions.

Students analyze a previously unknown, complex problem and write a specification sheet or work plan based on this. They draw up a time and milestone plan for a project. You find and evaluate solutions or approaches to solutions for a previously unknown, complex problem in a self-organized team/group in a given time. They apply known and new methods/tools to solve problems.

Students derive new concepts from known solutions by formulating hypotheses. They implement the solutions found and optimize them in the course of the project. They interpret the results in relation to the task.

Students document solutions and approaches they have developed themselves for a target group and discuss the concepts and draft solutions with the stakeholders concerned. They communicate with clients in a goal-oriented and target group-oriented manner. They work effectively in teams and present developed solutions and solution approaches to a specialist audience and the client. You can assess your role in a team and assume responsibility in a team.

Students use mechanisms of scientific information procurement. They critically reflect on information in new fields of knowledge. They evaluate new methods/tools for problem solving and develop them for themselves.
