Content

Business Modelling (3SP):

Students learn to build a complex business model canvas in full detail following the Osterwalder approach.

 

Lifelong Learning (LLL) (1 SP):

The purpose of the lifelong learning component is to encourage students to actively participate in the organization, develop their talents and shape themselves. This can be done through class support activities, through participation in councils, forums, innovation camps or info days, through organizing activities (e.g., the master's trip), through extra assignments, through attending seminars and through numerous other course-related activities that shape his engineering attitude.

Period 1    Credits 3,00

Evaluation method
Oral evaluation during teaching period100 %
Presentation
Additional information Assessment of the portfolio (LLL) is done with a pass/fail score. In case of failure on the 'lifelong learning' part, there will be no overall grade. If the 'lifelong learning' part is met, then the overall grade will consist of the 'Business modelling' grade. Transfer of grade on the 'Business modelling' part to a subsequent academic year, (in case of a 'fail' on the portfolio) is automatic if the student achieved a minimum of 10/20.
