About the Course

​​The semester concludes with a graded project where candidates must demonstrate practical skills and competence from completed courses during the semester. Candidates work independently on a project, which must be planned, documented and executed according to the project criteria. Candidates also prepares a project plan and an individual reflection report to document the process and choices made along the way. The project can open for teamwork, client projects, or interdisciplinary collaboration projects across disciplines. 

​The aim of the course is to complete a project focusing on digital models complete with technical documentation, simulation data with analytics and automated workflows. The project work is independent, and the project scope is set by the academic staff.​
