Learning outcomes of the course unit

Students acquire a deep insight into the key factors influencing the construction of different kinds of forming machines and learn to apply them within the scope of their dissertation work.

Prerequisites

Complex and high-quality engineering knowledge on the parts of machines and on construction of technical products.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

No credit; students must produce a written work at least 2 weeks before the exam. The exam is in oral form, evaluation of the written work represents 50% of the final classification.
