Eligibility

General entry requirements for Master's level (second cycle)

Specific entry requirements

English 6 (or by other approved means with the equivalent proficiency level)

Course specific prerequisites

In addition to the general requirements to study at the second-cycle level at Chalmers, necessary subject or project specific prerequisite competences (if any) must be fulfilled. Alternatively, the student must obtain the necessary competences during the course. The examiner will formulate and check these prerequisite competences.
Additional specific prerequisites for the course: To be eligible for this course, the student must have successfully completed TRA300 - Digitalization in sports.

Aim

General for all Tracks courses: The course provides a platform to work and solve challenging cross-disciplinary authentic problems from different stakeholders in society such as the academy, industry or public institutions. Additionally, the aim is that students from different educational programs practice working efficiently in multidisciplinary development teams

Course specific aim: The aim of this course is to provide students with the opportunity to apply the knowledge and skills acquired in TRA300 - Digitalization in sports, by further developing their project work and exploring digital technologies in sports and health-promoting applications in greater depth.

Learning outcomes (after completion of the course the student should be able to)

General learning outcomes for Tracks courses:
  • critically and creatively identify and/or formulate advanced architectural or engineering problems
  • master problems with open solutions spaces which includes to be able to handle uncertainties and limited information.
  • lead and participate in the development of new products, services, processes and/or systems by following a design process and/or a systematic development process.
  • communicate and convey information, problems, methods, and development processes, both orally and in writing
Course specific learning outcomes:
  • apply advanced knowledge and skills in digital technologies in sports and health-promoting applications
  • develop and implement a project plan for a complex problem in the field of digitalization in sports
  • critically evaluate and reflect on the project outcomes and the development process

Content

The course is organized around a project that is driven by a challenge related to digitalization in sports and health promoting applications. The project may involve the development of a product, service, or application, or it may be more research-oriented. The course will include teaching and learning activities that support the development of the necessary skills for the project, such as project management, research methods, and communication skills. The specific content of the course will depend on the nature of the project and the challenges being addressed.

Organisation

The course is run by a teaching team. The main part of the course is a challenge driven project. The challenge may range from being broad societal to profound research driven. The project task is solved in a group. The course is supplemented by teaching and learning of the skills necessary for the project. The project team will have one university examiner, one or a pool of university supervisors and one or a pool of external co-supervisors if applicable.

Literature

Relevant literature is retrieved and acquired by students as a part of the project.

Examination including compulsory elements

The project outcome, including the developed product, service, or application, and the report, is assessed after an oral presentation. For research-oriented projects, the report should be written in the form of a scientific paper and the academic quality should correspond to the level of a scientific conference paper. If the project is more development-oriented, the report should be written in the form of a project report and the main focus of the assessment will be the developed product, service, or application.

The course examiner may assess individual students in other ways than what is stated above if there are special reasons for doing so, for example if a student has a decision from Chalmers about disability study support.
