The first part of the course covers applied electrical and thermal engineering topics as well as applied measurement technique. The detailed topics are chosen in conjunction with the necessary knowledge that is necessary to plan, design, build and test a solar energy technology component such as a solar collector. The first part of the course also includes lectures on technical communication, plagiarism, information search and social barriers related to solar energy technology. In the second part of the course students will plan, design, build and test a solar energy technology system where the knowledge from the previous/parallel lectures and the programme courses on solar radiation, photovoltaics and solar thermal will be applied.
