Course content
Experts in Teamwork is a course in which students apply their academic competence in interdisciplinary project work to learn cooperative skills that can be transferred to the workplace. Relevant issues from society and working life form the basis for the project work, and the student teams should work together with external partners. The student team must adapt the project that the team members choose, to suit their combined competence and the theme of the village. This village focuses on issues related to quality of life, health, materials technology, biotechnology and product design. The main objective of the village is to convert ideas into research, and research into solutions. To be successful in modern medical device and implant development extensive technological capabilities covering material- bio-, electronic-, mechanical-, material- and control technologies, along with the ability to evaluate the medical implications during their use in and/or on the human body. The economic aspect related to the development of "new" concepts/solutions is also of importance. In other words, multidisciplinary alliances need to be formed to harness the diverse skills and technologies needed to deliver successful and effective outcomes.
