Knowledge and understanding
For a Degree of Bachelor of Science in Engineering the student shall

  • demonstrate knowledge of the disciplinary foundation of the engineering field chosen and proven experience in this field as well as awareness of current research and development work, and

  • demonstrate broad knowledge in the engineering field chosen and relevant knowledge of mathematics and the natural sciences. 


**Skills and abilities**
For a Degree of Bachelor of Science in Engineering the student shall
  • demonstrate the ability to identify, formulate and deal with issues autonomously and creatively and to analyse and evaluate technological solutions

  • demonstrate the ability to plan and using appropriate methods undertake tasks within predetermined parameters

  • demonstrate the ability to use knowledge critically and systematically to model, simulate, predict and evaluate series of events on the basis of relevant information

  • demonstrate the ability to design and manage products, processes and systems while taking into account the circumstances and needs of individuals and the targets for economically, socially and ecologically sustainable development set by the community

  • demonstrate the capacity for teamwork and collaboration with various constellations, and

  • demonstrate the ability to present and discuss information, problems and solutions in speech and writing and in dialogue with different audiences.

Judgement and attitudes
For a Degree of Bachelor of Science in Engineering the student shall

  • demonstrate the ability to make assessments informed by relevant disciplinary, social and ethical aspects

  • demonstrate insight into the possibilities and limitations of technology, its role in society and the responsibility of the individual for how it is used, including social and economic aspects as well as environmental and occupational health and safety aspects
