Aim
The aim of the course is for the student to acquire the techniques used in the engineering practice related to energy and energy machines within the framework of the diploma design project, to acquire an independent problem-solving practice. During the diploma design task, he demonstrates his maturity for solving engineering tasks to a high standard by solving and documenting tasks related to various topics. During the diploma planning, he / she performs independent engineering work under the guidance of the supervisor of the department - sometimes his / her plant consultant.
Learning outcomes
Competences that can be acquired by completing the course
Knowledge
With the help of his / her supervisor, he / she identifies the main content elements of the dissertation thesis to be written about a chosen segment of the field. He gathers the literature with the help of the knowledge acquired during his training. With the help of his prior knowledge, he systematizes the new knowledge gained during the reading of the literature. He has the knowledge needed to analyze the literature reviewed. He / she is aware of the professional knowledge required to perform the tasks in the job description at the appropriate level. It identifies challenges that would require a departure from the terms of reference or an extension of the scope of the tasks. He has the knowledge to consult effectively with his supervisor. He has the knowledge to propose changes to the terms of reference if necessary. He / she is aware of the professional knowledge on the basis of which he / she is able to make a proposal for the formulation of the points of the task with the help of his / her supervisor. He / she names the content and length of each chapter of the diploma project on the basis of prior knowledge.
Ability
Understands the tasks in the job description correctly. Specifies the correct order in which the tasks detailed in the job description are performed. It identifies the range of literature that still needs to be reviewed in order to properly prepare your dissertation. Describes the relevant knowledge found in the literature in your dissertation. Analyzes the literature reviewed in the light of what has been learned previously. He applies the professional knowledge acquired during his studies so far during the elaboration of his diploma thesis. It adequately addresses emerging challenges that would require deviating from the job description or expanding the tasks. In the course of his work, he prepares the results of the literature reviewed or the analysis carried out in order to make the consultations with his / her supervisor effective. Proposes to the supervisor to modify the dissertation assignment if the need arises. After completing the work, make suggestions for ways forward.
Attitude
He constantly monitors his work, results and conclusions with the help of his supervisor and consultant. It expands your knowledge of your chosen field by continuously acquiring knowledge. He is open to using information technology tools and acquiring new skills when needed. It strives to get to know the error-free and routine use of the tools needed to solve the technical problems that arise. Develops your ability to provide accurate and error-free problem solving, engineering precision and accuracy.
Independence and responsibility
Collaborates with your supervisor and consultant, as well as your fellow students as needed, to expand your knowledge. During the preparation of the dissertation, he / she accepts the well-founded professional and other critical remarks. He / she constantly cooperates with his / her supervisor, consultant and, if necessary, fellow students during the elaboration of his / her diploma thesis. With his knowledge, he makes a responsible, well-founded and independent decision based on his analyzes. He feels responsible for energy, the problems of energy management and the sustainable use of the environment, as well as present and future generations.
Teaching methodology
The subject is a unit without contact lessons. The student works independently on a complex task during the semester. He tries to solve the problems that arise during the solution of the task on his own. He uses the help of his supervisor and plant consultant only when making strategic decisions. During the solution of the task, the student comes to the solution of the task with the help of the knowledge and skills acquired during the training.

General rules
The evaluation of the performance is determined by the supervisor on the basis of the prepared diploma project. The diploma project is determined on the basis of the elaboration of the topic, the standard of the performed engineering, the quality of the processing of the literature related to the topic, the formal, aesthetic appearance, division and logical structure of the dissertation. The aspects of the scoring must be made on the basis of the evaluation form according to the current Faculty Regulations.
Assessment methods
