<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Some of you may remember the short presentation Joris and I did around November last year about finding BSc assignment projects for our Mechanical Engineering students. Some of you may be supervising one of our students
right now.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">A fair amount of them would like to do their
<b>project in the Autumn semester</b>. There has usually been a handful of them and projects could be arranged by word-of-mouth, but this year we have 20 of them so I would like to do this a little more formally. Some assignments, will be offered by UT, some
will be arranged with companies (external). I estimate that if we could place 8 students at VU (primarily in Physics, but feel free to forward this to colleagues in other departments you think might be interested) with
<b>4 duo assignments</b>, that would be ideal.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">If this is new to you, here is a quick summary:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0cm" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3"><span lang="EN-GB">To complete their BSc, students in Mechanical Engineering need to carry out a project in the spring semester (2 last blocks).
<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3"><span lang="EN-GB">The type of projects range from theoretical models (CFD, FEA,…) to designing and building experimental setup, or software programming to automate data acquisition
and/or interpretation. Feel free to discuss with me if you have doubts.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3"><span lang="EN-GB">General timeline: see below.<o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"><span lang="EN-GB">You can fill in the attached Word file and I will compile things together. There is still time to think about it or fully define the project as I will close the collection at the end of August
before the academic year starts.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-GB">Since some projects here at Physics may constitute or be tied to sensitive IP, we sometimes get questions about confidentiality and NDA’s. I hope the attached document on IP answers your questions/concerns.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-GB">If you still have questions, feel free to ask by e-mail or find me for a quick discussion (usually in 3B-131).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Dear colleagues of Physics and Astronomy,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">This e-mail is complementary to yesterday’s presentation at the staff meeting. If you were not present, here is a quick summary:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0cm" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3"><span lang="EN-GB">To complete their BSc, students in Mechanical Engineering need to carry out a project in the spring semester (2 last blocks).
<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3"><span lang="EN-GB">These projects can be external, but a lot of them are usually in research groups, sometimes at UT but also at VU. The type of projects range from theoretical models
(CFD, FEA,…) to designing and building experimental setup, or software programming to automate data acquisition and/or interpretation.
<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3"><span lang="EN-GB">A new element that will be introduced this week is an assignment/project market here at VU. Our students can pick assignments here at VU or at UT and there was previously
a combined market at UT, which many VU colleagues could not attend, resulting in low demand for VU projects. This year, there will be 2 markets, students as well as VU potential supervisors will be invited to both, but in practice, we think most will focus
on the VU one. With this, we hope to create good connections from the start between VU supervisors and ME students and ultimately have more students chose project that you propose.
<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3"><span lang="EN-GB">General timeline: potential supervisors submit projects between now and January, market on Feb 3<sup>rd</sup>, projects allocated on 12<sup>th</sup> , literature
review and definition of research from this point until mid-April, “full-time” work from students (4.5 day/week) from mid-April to end of June (12 weeks).<o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-GB">Submitting a project:<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"><b><span lang="EN-GB">If you already have UT credentials
</span></b><span lang="EN-GB">you can fill in the application form directly </span>
<span lang="EN-US"><a href="https://forms.office.com/e/bGtUvTTbRe">https://forms.office.com/e/bGtUvTTbRe</a><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"><b><span lang="EN-GB">If not </span>
</b><span lang="EN-GB">you can fill in the attached Word file and we will fill in the UT form on your behalf.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-GB">Since some projects here at Physics may constitute or be tied to sensitive IP, we sometimes get questions about confidentiality and NDA’s. I hope the attached document on IP answers your questions/concerns.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-GB">If you still have questions, feel free to ask by e-mail or find me for a quick discussion (usually in 3B-131), I will do my best to find an answer quickly even if I am new in this coordinating
role. I do have experience supervising such assignments and a good notion of what skills and knowledge our ME students (should) have.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
