DATA1600 Program Development Course description

Dette emnet skal gi studenten videregående ferdigheter innen imperativ programmering og programutvikling. Emnet bygger på grunnleggende forståelse og ferdigheter innen programmering (DAPE1400 eller tilsvarende). Det er forventet av studentene har fulgt emnet «Programmering» i forkant av emnet «Programutvikling». Selv om det ikke er en forutsetning at «Programmering»-emne er bestått for å melde seg på «Programutvikling»-emnet, er det sterkt anbefalt å ta «Programmering» før «Programutvikling». Pensum og materiale som dekkes i kurset «Programmering» ansees som kjent og vil ikke dekkes igjen i kurset «Programutvikling». Merk at emnet «Grunnleggende programmering» og «Webprogrammering» ikke er tilstrekkelige.

One internal examiner. External examiners are used regularly.

The course covers basic subjects in hydraulic and environmental engineering.

The goal is to give the students basic knowledge and skills in the planning, design, operation and maintenance of water and wastewater installations. The course also provides a broad introduction to planning, design, analysis and assessment of sustainable  stormwater management, detention basins and relevant water treatment solutions.

Field trips and inspections in this course are mandatory. 

No requirements over and above the admission requirements.

After completing the course, the student is expected to have achieved the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

The student is familiar with:

• Analyses, design, construction, operation and maintenance of water and wastewater  infrastructure
• Trench infrastructure
• Master planning
• Waterworks hydrology, water chemistry and the quality of various sources of drinking water and water quality terminology
• Relevant process engineering in water, wastewater and sludge treatment
• The impact of pollution on different recipients
• Basic knowledge on microbiology associated with hygienic barriers and biological water treatment processes
• Regulations and standards for the establishment, operation and maintenance of water and wastewater treatment plants
• Concepts, metrics, methods and interpretation of water quality data measured in drinking water, wastewater, stormwater and recipients in relation to official regulations

Skills

The student:

• is capable of basic planning and design of distribution networks, stormwater solutions and mechanical treatment facilities for water, wastewater and stormwater
• masters important terminology in the field

General competence

The student is capable of:

• reflecting on the choice of solutions for water, sewage, surface water and waste management in relation to safety and the surroundings
• disseminating measurement data and their consequences

Lectures, exercise sessions and field trips/inspections

After completing the course, the student is expected to have achieved the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

The student:

• have knowledge of; the mechanical and building technical properties of different soil types
• have knowledge of; water flows and drainage
• have knowledge of; flexible pavement design
• have basic knowledge of laboratory investigations related to road construction

Skills

The student:

• can make assessments and calculations of load-bearing capacity, earth pressure, settlements, stability and water flow
• can carry out geotechnical laboratory testing
• can design a structural sound and frost resilient flexible pavement
• can plan mass transport

General competence

The student:

• understands the basis for geotechnical design of foundations and support structures, and for geotechnical assessments in connection with. construction and transport projects in Norway
• understands the basis for road construction and is familiar with problems relating to road construction in challenging climates and under challenging ground conditions

Exam form: Individual written 3 hours exam under supervision.

The result of the exam can be appealed.

A resit or rescheduled exam may take the form of an oral exam.

All printed and written aids, and a handheld calculator that cannot be used for wireless communication or to perform symbolic calculations. If the calculator’s internal memory can store data, the memory must be deleted before the exam. Random checks may be carried out.

Graded scale A-F
