Student workload

Total workload 54 h of coursework, including preliminary assignments, laboratory work and reporting.

Assessment criteria, approved/failed

To pass this course you need to know how to work safely with automation hardware and be able to use your skills effectively in testing, operating and commissioning tasks. You are able to get additional information related to the work tasks by using different methods, applying theory in practice. You master the execution of connections and measurements with electrical drives.

Content scheduling

Before the laboratory work, the preliminary tasks must have been completed. Each student will have two separate visits (one in the automation lab and one in the electrical lab).

Exam schedules

There is no exam.
