Overall learning objectives
The main objective is to learn the practical design and build electronic circuits and electrical systems with respect to their electromagnetic compatibility supporting the operation of an electric formula student car and to apply simulation results in practice.
Learning objectives - Knowledge
•Understanding of the basic physics of classical FEM and CFD
•Understanding how to run a simulation and apply results in practice.
•Having a comprehension of the fundamentals of EMC
•Understanding of common EMC standards and test
•Understanding of proper PCB layout and unwanted EMI coupling paths
•Understanding the realistic aspect of working in a team to fulfil a common goal.
Learning objectives - Skills
•The ability to design and manufacture mechanical components.
•The ability to analyze and interpret simulation output.
•The ability to identify potential sources of EMC problems including radiated emission and ESD
•The ability to estimate and/or measure the radiated emission from a simple PCB and perform an ESD test.
Learning objectives - Competences
The students can manage their own activities related to the different phases of a typical development project. They are independently able to define and analyze problems within the area of EMC with focus on radiated emission and ESD.
The student can incorporate electronics and software into an overall working system, including control strategies.
Content
•Fundamental Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
•Computer Aided Design (CAD)
•Finite Element Methods (FEM)
•Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design
•Teamwork including workshop activities and real-life testing of designs.

Additional information
Enrollment is limited to 8 students.
If more applicants than places, applicants who meet the mandatory requirements are prioritised according to the below selection criteria:
- Undergraduate and graduate students from partner universities (exchange); international undergraduate and graduate guest students (fee-paying); undergraduate and graduate students from other Danish universities.
- Ph.D students from partner universities and other international Ph.D. students; other applicants.
Students are prioritised on a first come, first served basis, i.e. according to the time we receive your complete application.
In case a course is filled up, we try to offer you an alternative course from your list of priorities. All final decisions about admission will be sent out continually.
