Course detail

Design Project Realization

FSI-YE3Acad. year: 2022/2023

This course focuses on the use of already acquired knowledge from the previous course (Project design development). During the course, emphasis is placed on a comprehensive solution to the problem, which goes from the concept itself, through the selection of materials and production technologies to the final design. The condition of the final design is its usability and manufacturability in practice through current technologies. The output of the assignment is drawing documentation, presentation, and presentation model of the proposed solution on a suitable scale.

Aims

The course leads students to a comprehensive design solution. After completing the course, students will be able to create an original, full-fledged design proposal that will meet all requirements for functionality and manufacturability. Graduates will be able to use the acquired knowledge for the comprehensive implementation of various projects.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation, and compensation for absences: Attendance is compulsory and controlled by the teacher, a maximum of two excused absences per semester is allowed. In case of long-term absence, compensation for missed classes is in the competence of the subject guarantor.
