Project in practice

While the exact technical focus may adapt to your specific degree program (e.g., Animal Science, Food Science, Economics), the overarching learning objectives established by the university are as follows:
1. Knowledge
Upon completing the project, you are expected to possess knowledge of:
· The Workplace: The company or the organization as a workplace and its organizational culture.
· Contextual Awareness: The commercial and societal context that encompasses your specific subject/study programme.
· Academic Integration: The specific academic knowledge required to carry out the processes and tasks assigned during the project.
· Organizational Role: Your specific organizational placement and function within the host company.
2. Skills
The primary skill objective is practical application:
· Application of Theory: Applying theory and methods from your study programme to a specific, real-world context within the company/organization.
3. Competences
The highest level of learning outcomes focuses on interpersonal and reflective abilities:
· Collaboration: The ability to collaborate and communicate effectively with different professional groups in a company.
· Commercial Reflection: The ability to reflect on the application of your academic skills in a commercial or organizational context.
· Personal Learning Reflection: The ability to reflect on what you have learned throughout the process (both professional knowledge and general skills), and how this contributes to your professional and personal development.

How it is assessed: To pass the course, you must demonstrate these outcomes in a final project report (usually 15-20 pages for a 15 ECTS project). The report typically requires you to describe the company, discuss the academic knowledge you utilized and acquired, and provide a deep personal reflection on your learning process and how your academic profile fits into an occupational context.
