Advice
Dit opleidingsonderdeel moet in principe als laatste, samen met de masterproef opgenomen worden. Er wordt immers verwacht dat in het reflectieportfolio reflecteren op hoe je systeemdenken kan toepassen op de andere opleidingsonderdelen uit de master die de student gekozen had. Enkel indien de student kan afstuderen na het eerste semester van het volgende academiejaar (en dus de masterproef opneemt in dat semester), mag systeemdenken dit jaar al opgenomen worden.

The course consists of 3 parts:
- Systemic cases: the students are presented with a number of cases: business examples, (partially) presented by guest speakers, historical cases and fictitious, contrived cases with a discussion of the impact on direct and indirect stakeholders and on society and the global system as a whole, and a search for the best trade off. Discussion and reflection are important components here.
Legal aspects play an important role in the evaluation of a system, and there are therefore a number of lectures covering legal aspects.
- Portfolio: The programme consists of many courses each focusing on (important) parts of a software system. There is however often not enough time nor space in the particular course to discuss the effects of that part on the global system as a whole. This is where the portfolio kicks in. The portfolio fulfills two goals:
- describing how the tasks and papers for the others courses would fit in a global software system and reflecting on the impact of the proposed solution (analoguous to the cases from bullet 1)
- having the student reflect on his strengths and weaknesses and on the particular profile as engineer in software systems technology he/she pursues.
- Life Long Learning (LLL) inventory: the goal of the life long learning is to raise awareness of the fact the learning doesn't stop when graduating and that being a professional entails more than just doing your own job. Therefore this part of system thinking encourages students to actively participate in the organisation, to develop their talents and to educate themselves. This can be done by supporting lessons, participating in councils, forums, innovation camps or information days, organising activities, carrying out extra assignments, attending seminars and many other programme-related activities that shape the student's engineering attitude. The student must hand in an inventory that gives evidence of his efforts in this aspect.

3. The student must obtain at least 8.0/20, both on the exam and on the reflective portfolio. |
|
|
|
| Consequences | 1. In case of failure on the part of 'lifelong learning', there will be no overall mark (FAIL).
2. When the student is absent on 1 or 2 of the compulsory classes, a replacement task with report must be made. More than 2 absences will result in a FAIL for the course.
3. If the 'lifelong learning' part is passed, the overall grade will consist of the weighted average of the grades for the exam and the reflective portfolio, unless any of these grades is less than 8.0/20. In that case the students will have no more than 9/20 as the final result. |

| ENG&TECH 2. The newly graduated student has advanced knowledge of and insight into the acquired specific subject didactics and is able to creatively conceive, plan and implement these in an educational context, in particular as an integrated part of a methodologically and project-based series of actions within a multidisciplinary STEM project with a significant component of research and/or innovation. | - EC
| ENG&TECH 3. The newly graduated student has advanced or specialised knowledge of and insight into the principles, structure and technologies of various industrial processes and techniques relevant to his/her specific subject didactics and can autonomously recognise, critically analyse and find methodical and well-founded solutions to complex, multidisciplinary, unfamiliar, practice-oriented design or optimisation problems with an eye to application, selection of materials, automation, safety, environment and sustainability, an awareness of practical limitations and attentiveness to current technological developments. |
