Master of Energy Engineering Technology (English)

EC	EC1 - The holder of the degree thinks and acts professionally with an appropriate engineering attitude and continuous focus on personal development, adequately communicates, effectively cooperates, takes into account the sustainable, economical, ethical, social and/or international context and is hereby aware of the impact on the environment.
	DC	DC-M8 - The student can evaluate knowledge and skills critically to adjust own reasoning and course of action accordingly.
		BC	The evaluation criteria are determined by the host institution, in cooperation with the home institution, and depending on the n ature of the international activity.
