Working on real projects for the industry is the best way<br />

to learn about how the industry works in reality, rather<br />

than just in theory. Do you have a project idea that could<br />

help our students?<br />

We would like to appeal for help from our alumni to help our<br />

Bachelor students find good topics for their individual Industry<br />

Projects (IP). As some of our alumni already know, these are research<br />

projects that are supposed to be of value to the industry.<br />

Students have to pass the IP to be able to graduate.<br />

Unfortunately, some good students find it difficult to get the<br />

cooperation of people in the industry for one reason or another<br />

and this is a real pity for the students as these IPs can produce<br />

very valuable results for the industry. We are therefore appealing<br />

to all alumni to see if they have suitable IP projects.<br />

What sort of project would constitute a good IP? Basically, it<br />

could be an issue or problem that you would like to see investigated<br />

or perhaps research that you would like to see done but<br />

haven’t had the time to do. The actual formal project lasts for<br />

eleven weeks but students can work on it for several months<br />

(or longer). All they need from you is access to the relevant data<br />

and you can be assured that confidentiality is guaranteed. Please<br />

help today’s students prepare for their future careers.<br />

If you have any suitable projects, feel free to contact Tanja<br />

Florenthal, the Undergraduate Program Director, or myself to<br />

discuss your ideas.<br />
