European Global Product Realization course


Published on: 01-11-2021, Author: admin

Students interested in learning in an international environment and developing new products are invited to apply for the EGPR course. EGPR is an international English language course conducted in cooperation with the universities of Ljubljana, Vienna and Milan with simultaneous videoconferencing classes and with the participation of an industrial partner. During the course, students in international teams participate in the development of the concept and the construction of a global product for an industrial partner. This year's industrial partner is Siemens Mobility Austria GmbH.

During classes (from mid-February to June 2021), international, multidisciplinary teams of students will conceptualize, design and detail a technical solution for the task. This year's task is to develop flexible elements of the interior of the new generation subway car, which will allow adaptation depending on the changing number of passengers.

Initially, due to current epidemiological recommendations, students will participate in an introductory virtual workshop (22.2.-24.2.2021.) and then the rest of the semester will work in a virtual environment with students from the remaining three reputable universities. During the final workshop, students will present the developed concepts and explain the concept development process. According to the current course plan, the final workshop will be held at the premises of the industrial partner Siemens Mobility Austria GmbH (Vienna, Austria), scheduled for June 2021.

The EGPR course is enrolled as two elective technical courses (EGPR I and EGPR II), each with 4 ECTS. Regardless of the semester in which you formally enrol in elective technical courses, the course is taught and conducted only in the summer semester as a whole.
