The first part of the course (nine weeks) comprises a series of whole-day lecture seminars. Students are expected to play an active role. Lecture seminars start with a lecture that introduces the topic and are followed by hands-on exercises in class.

The second part of the course (nine weeks) is a Robotics and Control project in groups of 1-3 students.

The course is completed by the students submitting a report and giving a presentation of their work.

One obligatory submission.

Exam in two parts:

1. Project report done individually or in groups of 2-3 students. The total length of the report should be around 15 pages, or between 5000-15000 words, each student contributing with 5000-7500 words (80% of the final grade)

2. Oral project presentation (30 minutes if a group; 20 minutes if individual) (20% of the final grade)

Both exams must be passed in order to pass the course. The oral examination cannot be appealed

New/postponed exam

In case of failed exam or legal absence, the student may apply for a new or postponed exam. New or postponed exams are offered within a reasonable time span following the regular exam.
