Technology and theory of research X
The young engineer
The aims of the training are to enable the apprentice to- plan and build a fixed or movable construction that has a specific function
- use three-dimensional drawings or sketches in developing constructions
- use different materials and ways of joining these together, and give grounds for choice of materials and construction methods based on material properties and the function of the construction itself
- use sensors and guidance-and-control systems in connection with experiments and constructions
- document and evaluate the construction's physical properties and functionality by means of measurements and simple calculations
The young researcher
The aims of the training are to enable the apprentice to- give an account of how a scientific project is planned, carried out and followed up before being published
- plan, carry out, analyse and document systematic measurements for noise, air pollution, indoor climates and water quality, and elaborate on and discuss climatic and health-related effects
Technology, science and society
The aims of the training are to enable the apprentice to- elaborate on and discuss ethical, environmental, cultural and political aspects of technological development
- describe the historical development of technological devices, explain how some work, and elaborate on and discuss their application and use in society
- give an account of development and production of a technological product, and evaluate the product's user-friendliness, developmental possibilities and environmental effects
- describe the principles and workings of some modern instruments within the field of industry, health institutions or research, and give an account of its usefulness or possible harmful effects
- map out and present practical use of science and mathematics in a local company or institution
