| Additional information on mode of examination | The final grade is composed of a design project (60%) and a final oral exam (40%). For the design project, students form groups of 4-5 and decide the project objective based on a recent conference or journal publication (we provide a set of publications for the students to make a choice). The design is performed during the exercise hours under the supervision of the lecturer and teaching assistants. In addition, we expect students to devote additional time to the design project (homework). The design project will be evaluated in three stages: 1) In the mid-term project presentation, a student representing each group explains one's project in the aspects of operational principle, performance target and plan; 2) in the final project presentation, the design outcome is explained including the accomplished novelty and performance; 3) a written project report summarizes detailed explanation on the design. The overall evaluation is based on the mid-term project presentation (15%), the final project presentation (30%) and the project report (15%). The oral exam (30 min) will evaluate the qualitative understanding of the course material individually. |
