General objectives The problems we are facing today are complex and constantly changing.
Strong disciplinary knowledge does not suffice to solve these problems; we
need professionals who are prepared to look at problems from different
perspectives and who have learnt to collaborate with professionals from
other disciplines. The European Project Semester (EPS) is crafted to
prepare students with all the necessary skills to face the challenges of
today’s world economy.
Indication of target group The target group consists of third and fourth year students from all
disciplines who are interested in an international and intercultural
challenge and who are keen on personal development.
Description of tests and The assessment of the 18 EC project is based on continuous assessment
minimum pass rate including an interim report and a final report. Finally the group will deliver
a group product such as a research report, advisory report, a prototype or
a final product, depending on the company’s question. This group product
(interim report, final report and final product) is 50% of the final mark for
the project. Each student’s individual contribution to the project and the
peer feedback as given during the project, will be part of the student’s
individual portfolio and will be assessed individually and counts for the
other 50%.
The average score of the total course must be 5,5 or higher. The average
of each subject must be at least 4,5.
Teaching methods + This minor consists of a variety of teaching methods: company visits,
studyload (guest) lectures, group work, project assistance and workshops.
Contact hours There will be a minimum of 15 contact hours per week. During the other
hours students will work on the project.
