| Design Science is coupled to the BSc IP and will be scheduled twice a year If you do not meet the entrance requirements for the BSc IP you have to quit Design Science and restart next semester. The set-up of Design Science is with three separate parts, each with specific requirements to pass: 1. IEM Methods and Application Review, in group work (groups of three), in which students a. identify key methods and application for a typical IEM research field, in which both an empirical approach and a problem solving/design approach are in scope b. define rudimentary research design to set-up a design science approach, that both deliver a design and generate general applicable knowledge The first part should be satisfactorily passed in order to individually get access to part 2: 2. Set-up a Research and Design Plan for the IEM Bachelor Integration Project. Students select their Ba IP topic and perform a RDP, based on the knowledge and skills acquired in Research and Design Methodology (RDM), a prerequisite for the Design Science. The results of RDP are presented and defended in a panel discussion. The second part (and thus the first part) needs to be sufficient to continue with the Ba IP, and therefore is Go/No Go decision. In case of No Go, all parts of Design Science has to be repeated in the next occasion. 3. The workshops on English, writing and presentation, summarize key issues in English proficiency and command, applied to the Ba IP work, and therefore situated (and only available) during the Ba IP execution phase. The third part should be on an adequate level in order to pass Design Science. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 10 | Dynamics of Engineering Systems | WBIE035-05 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The course aims to integrate the knowledge gained from preceding courses on mathematics, modeling and programming, crystallizing this with carefully chosen application examples and assignment work performed within teams. Specifically, students will explore the interplay between mathematics and engineering in the context of the dynamics of engineering systems, where the goal is to predict system behavior. MATLAB is the main software used in this course. A broad spectrum of dynamical physical and virtual systems is covered in this course, including structural, fluid and network dynamics, heat transfer, reaction kinetics, etc. Students will be exposed to different types of engineering research with characteristic examples of applications and the models used to study those. By the end of the course, students should be able to describe the behavior of such systems, build the models necessary to capture the main aspects of this behavior, and analyze model predictions compared to empirical observations of reality; these aspects will be tested in a final exam. Lectures will take place each week to introduce and strengthen the concepts and theory necessary for the computer practicals. Students will work in teams to submit assignments on each of the main topics of the course. A poster symposium will take place midway through the course. Team grades are calculated based on assignment submissions (60%), symposium posters (10%), as well as midterm (10%) and final exams (20%). Receiving more than one insufficient grade (<5.5 out of 10) on the assignments will result in the team members receiving a fail in this course, as these students will not be able to take the final exam. Participation in the symposium poster session, as well as the midterm and final exams is mandatory to pass this course. Receiving a passing grade (>5.5 out of 10) on the final exam is required to pass the course. Individual grades will be calculated using a peer review scheme. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 13 | Gas-Liquid Mass Transfer | WBIE036-05 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The course unit is dedicated to the Industrial Engineering and Management Bachelor Program. In the chemical, pharmaceutical, food, energy and product industry respectively multi-phase processes are frequently encountered. Characteristic in all these multi-phase processes is that the reactants that are required for the process are present in different phases, e.g. gas and liquid phase respectively. Therefore at least one of the reactants has to be transported to the so-called reaction phase. The subjects of this course are the fundamentals of mass transfer and mass transfer accompanied by chemical reactions. Homogeneous reactions, with reactants present in different phases, are dealt with. The focus is to design and calculate the performance of multi-phase reactors. The course Mass Transfer and Reactions in Gas-liquid Reactors is a consecutive step to Single-phase Reactors. It is a requirement that the fundamentals of the latter course are well understood before starting with Mass Transfer and Reactions in Gas- Liquid Reactors. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 29 | Nanoscience and Nanotechnology | WBIE045-05 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Nanoscience and nanotechnology are key areas of interdisciplinary research and development which combine fundamental and applied aspects of science. The course aims to inculcate an understanding of the fundamental physical, mechanical, electrical, material, chemical and morphological properties that occur at nanoscale. The course also introduces the various mechanisms of the synthesis and fabrication of nanoscale materials. The synthesis of the nanoscale materials is typically carried out either in a “bottom-up” approach, where functional nanostructures are formed through molecular interactions, or by nanofabrication through a “top-down” approach. The course structure includes illustrations and descriptions that create a solid basis for understanding both these approaches. The course will also introduce very large scale integration (VLSI) technology and miniaturization technologies involved in the various micro/nano electro mechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS) unit processing steps (bulk and surface micromachining). Nature features some of the most profound innovations in nanoscience with numerous examples where nanostructures, nanoscale phenomenon and nanosensors have been exploited to achieve various complex functions. This course introduces a number of such examples of nanotechnology in nature and also discusses their engineering applications for use in real-time. Nanotechnology has already proven applications in fields such as biotechnology, sensing, medicine, pharmaceuticals, telecommunications, energy, environmental science etc. and has a great potential for many other innovations in the future. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 30 | Nederlands Bedrijfsrecht voor IEM | WBIE002-05 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Het vak Bedrijfsrecht voor IEM maakt deel uit van de verplichte leerstof in het curriculum van Industrial Enginering & Management en wordt zowel in het Engels als in het Nederlands aangeboden. Het feit dat het vak onderdeel uitmaakt van het genoemde curriculum moet worden bezien tegen de achtergrond van de wijze waarop deze studie wordt aangeboden. Uitgangspunt vormt de gedachte dat IEM er ook op gericht is om studenten inzichten en vaardigheden te laten verwerven die noodzakelijk zijn voor het ontwerpen, beheersen en veranderen van organisaties. Daarnaast is de studie ook beroeps- en praktijkgericht, dat wil zeggen dat men de in de praktijk voorkomende organisatorische problemen centraal plaatst. Middels de toepassing van wetenschappelijke kennis, methoden en technieken moet de student dan zo ver worden gebracht dat hij in staat is deze problemen op te lossen. Voor de studenten geldt dat zij er zich terdege bewust moet zijn van het feit dat de relatie tussen technologie, organisatie en management voor een belangrijk deel wordt beheerst door allerlei juridische (on)mogelijkheden. Om organisaties succesvol te kunnen ontwerpen, te beheersen en zo nodig te veranderen moet men, naast allerlei andere kennisbronnen, ook beschikken over een hoeveelheid juridische kennis. Ook bij het oplossen van technische problemen moet rekening worden gehouden met de juridische randvoorwaarden die het probleem omgeven. Zou men deze aspecten buiten beschouwing laten dan kan dit op termijn de organisatie in ernstige problemen brengen. Een belangrijkhulpmiddel bij het bereiken van oplossingen vormt het wetboek. Tijdens werkcolleges worden studenten in staat gesteld om onder begeleiding van een docent te oefenen in het gebruik van dit instrument. Ook bij de toetsing mogen studenten van een wetboek gebruik maken. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 32 | Operations Research | WBIE007-05 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Operations Research (OR) is a discipline that helps to make better decisions in complex scenarios by the application of a set of analytical tools. OR provides a wide range of problem-solving techniques and methods applied in the pursuit of improved decision-making and efficiency. In this course, the students will learn how to translate a descriptive planning problem into a suitable mathematical formulation including objective functions and feasibility constraints. Consequently, they will learn efficient methods to solve a rightly formulated optimization problem. Students will learn how to determine which of the available OR techniques are most appropriate given the nature of the problem, the goals for improvement, and constraints on time and computing power. Applications of OR techniques spread over various fields in engineering and management will be illustrated through numerous examples. This course introduces the students to the following topics: Linear and Integer Linear Programming, Transportation and Assignment problems, and various network optimization settings including the minimum spanning tree, the maximum flow, and the minimum cost flow problem. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 33 | Organizational Behaviour and Group Dynamics | WBIE012-05 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| In this course you will learn how to manage organizational behavior. In other words, you will learn how you can make sure that employees work effectively towards realizing the goals of their organization. To realize this outcome, we will discuss four fundamental aspects that influence organizational behavior, namely the management of (1) the organizational structure, (2) organizational processes, (3) teams in the organization, and (4) individual employees in the organization. Lecture 1 will cover topic 1, Lecture 2 will cover topic 2, etc. During each lecture, we will discuss theoretical models that can inform you on how to best manage the fundamental organizational aspect that is under study that week. Moreover, during each lecture, we will discuss how to spot and resolve potential practical problems in the organization associated with the topic under study. Specifically, we will discuss how to analyze organizational network data (i.e., information on who works with whom) to assess and better manage organizations, using the statistical technique that is called “Organizational Network Analysis” (ONA). By the end of the course, you should be able to take a scientific and pragmatic approach towards dealing with potential problems that can limit organizational effectiveness. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| First, the students are introduced to LabVIEW, a development environment for visual programming. The students will simulate the control of a Festo unit, and thereafter run the Festo unit. The course continues with a general introduction to programming. Basic programming concepts and data structures will be introduced. MATLAB will be used as programming language. We discuss scripts, arrays, build-in functions, data sets, vectors, code blocks, functions, cell arrays and the general programming concepts like conditional statements, iterations, and recursions. These programming concepts will be practiced by solving problems taken from Calculus 1 and a typical IEM problem that will be met in more detail later in the study. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 42 | Research and Design Methodology | WBIE015-05 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| In groups and individually, students prepare the problem synthesis phase and operationalization of a typical IEM project. The first part of the course unit consists of three lectures and three Team Based-Learning (TBL) sessions where the concepts are rehearsed with individual and group work. The second part of the course unit corresponds to smaller group sessions towards the design of a research plan. Literature from papers and book chapters provides a theoretical background to adequately handle the assignments, and written and oral examinations. TBL sessions consist of three parts: an individual written examination (30 min), a group written examination (30 min), and a group TBL case (120min). A total of three TBL workshops are organized during the first five weeks of the course unit. All TBL individual written examinations should be sufficient, i.e. >5.5, and it is the requirement to continue with the second part of the course unit. During the lecturing period, key concepts, methods and tools for research and design methodologies are introduced. Five weeks after the completion of the lectures and TBL workshops, a synthesis case is worked out in different sessions and during three weeks. The final deliverable is a so-called Research and Design Plan (RDP) for a specific (synthesis) case, which resembles the first stage of the IEM Bachelor Integration Project in the fourth block, third-year. A sufficient mark >5.5 on the RDP is a requirement to continue with the individual oral examination. Successfully passing of the course unit is an entrance requirement for the Bachelor Integration Project. During the course unit, setup and discussion of IEM methodology type of assignments will be done while adhering to an academic attitude that is being: o Accuracy o Consistency o Quality of reasoning/logic o Adequacy o Critical attitude o Fact- and/or evidence-based | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 45 | System Dynamics | WBIE016-05 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| This course unit introduces you to system dynamics: one of the most widely used systems approaches which was pionereed by Jay Forrester in the 50s. What is system dynamics? The following quote from John Sterman's "Business Dynamics: Systems Thinking and Modeling for a Complex World" (pp. vii and ix) provides an eloquent description: "Accelerating economic, technological, social, and environmental change challenge managers and policy makers to learn at increasing rates, while at the same time the complexity of the systems in which we live is growing. Many of the problems we now face arise as unanticipated side effects of our own past actions. All too often the policies we implement to solve important problems fail, make the problem worse, or create new problems. Effective decision making and learning in a world of growing dynamic complexity requires us to become systems thinkers - to expand the boundaries of our mental models and develop tools to understand how the structure of complex systems creates their behavior. System Dynamics is a perspective and set of conceptual tools that enable us to understand the structure and dynamics of complex systems. System dynamics is grounded in control theory and the modern theory of nonlinear dynamics. There is an elegant and rigorous mathematical foundation for the theory and models we develop. System dynamics is also designed to be a practical tool that policy makers can use to help them solve the pressing problems they confront in their organizations." In this rigorous course we will model and learn about various complex systems, such as for example innovation diffusion, commodity markets, epidemics and workforce-production-inventory systems. We will also use some famous system dynamics models for analysis, as well as learning in and about complex systems through management flight simulators to further develop and hone your systems thinking skills. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Under the generic title Transport Phenomena II, academic and industrial staff work with students on sustainable process challenges. The course unit demonstrates and rehearse the immense potential of fundamental calculations in fluid dynamics to analyze and test engineering solutions in industrial innovation. The IEM character is emphasized by including management challenges on sustainable development, in the broad field of the process industry. After an introduction section to establish theoretical concepts, company representatives introduce an industrial case, particular directed to improved sustainable performance. The course unit set-up subsequently starts with a block of theoretical concepts, including an intermediate written exam, followed by group work with work-in-progress meetings and finalized in written and oral reporting. In group work, a variety of management tools are applied, ranging from sustainable development to management sciences, aiming to effectively work on temporary industrial challenges sustainable process engineering. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
