Modules and ECTS

- Energy Technology 

 

Programme structure

The Energy Technology programme is an AP degree that corresponds to a value of 120 ECTS credits. The programme comprises a compulsory element, an elective element, an internship and a final examination project. The compulsory element is divided into two parts, one belonging to the national curriculum and one belonging to the institutional curriculum.

The elective educational elements allow the student to delve into specific subject areas. During an internship, theory is connected with business community practices and by way of the final examination project the student demonstrates his or her abilities to immerse him or herself in an assignment by solving an applied problem in close collaboration with the business community.

 

Structure of the course

Subjects and modules are interwoven so that the students learn to apply all their skills and competences on a complex set of problems and not only on isolated single subject problems.

 

Incoming students therefore have to follow all activities of a semester, meaning they have to follow all 30 ECTS of one semester - students cannot be exempt from single subjects or mix subjects from different courses and different semesters.
