Learning outcomes:
Industrial design: After successfully completing this part of the module, students will be familiar with basic terms and design strategies of industrial design and apply these when developing technical products. Ergonomics: After successfully completing this part of the module, students will be able to include ergonomics as a factor in the development and design of products in order to increase their usability, user friendliness and safety. They will be able to design human-machine systems and their environment in such a way that the variability of humans is taken into account with regard to their physiological and anthropometric characteristics, as well as their cognitive characteristics. Ethics in Engineering: After successfully completing this part of the module, students will be familiar with basic concepts of ethics and can apply them to engineering sciences. Students will be able to identify ethical conflicts, distinguish between legal and ethical perspectives and assess options for action with the help of ethical concepts. Student will be able to take a position on ethical conflicts, argue accordingly and act responsibly.
