Learning objectives (competencies)

Objectives Competences Taxonomy levels
Overview: Students know the methodology for developing mechatronic products. They are able to work on a project assignment in groups and they acquire an understanding of how to work with a modern CAD system.    
(1) They know the methodology for developing mechatronic products and can apply this in practical examples. M K3
(2) They can independently form a project team, organise the teamwork and work on an assignment. SO K3
(3) They can develop product ideas and visualise these in drawings and CAD models. F, M K5
(4) They can model components and create assemblies with the help of the CAD program used at the ZHAW. F, M K3
(5) They can draft and deliver a technical presentation. M K5
