Objectives
PART I: Multidisciplinary Project
1. The anchoring from research in the education :
- general research, executed within the department civil engineering.
- social service within the department civil engineering.
- research projects.
- research lines.
- research within doctoral dissertation.
2. The anchoring from internalisation in the education. The anchoring is realised by :
- training period between the 2nd and the 3th year
- multidisciplinary project in the bachelor
3. The task fits in with :
- research skill.
- team work.
PART II: Training Period
It concerns a general training period in which the students meet the action field.
Topics
PART I: Multidisciplinary Project
1. Define a problem propostion.
2. Define a research design.
3. Making a literature study on the basis of file and source material
4. Conduct of investigation in of the fields of engineering, land surveying or urban design and spatial planning.
5.. Reporting a scientific research
6.. Presenting the research results
7. Making conclusions.
PART II: Training Period
1. To pass through a training period in a company, or an institution which is active in the field of civil engineering, land surveying or urban design and spatial planning
2.. The training period lasts at least 4 weeks and is extendible.
The training period can start at earliest after the end of the examinations of the
second semester of the second year and must be completed before the commencement of the examinations of the second semester of the third year
In principle the training period take place always in the summer holiday between the second and third year bachelor. Only in exceptional cases the university can give admission to deviate
from this period.
3. The training period can take place in Belgium or foreign countries.
4.. The training period can be coupled to the interdisciplinary project
5. The training period co-ordinator explaines the procedure at the start of the 2nd year bachelor
6. A listing with possible institutes and companies is made available.
7.. The student must apply himself for a place
8. The student fills in afterwards the training period proposal. On this all necessary data of the company or institution and the training period which is necessary for making up the training period
9.. By means of the training period proposal the place is approved by the civil engineering department
10. The training period co-ordinator establishes the training period contract and other administrative forms.
11. The student get assigned a training period leader of the university and a
training period counsellor in the company or institution.
12. During the training period the student establish a training period
report.
13. The report is defended orally for the training period leader of the
university.
14. The training period counsellor fills in the evaluation form.
15. The training period leader of the university assesses the training period
and gives points.

- The read commission give recommendation concerning the laid down
report to the examining board.>
- The examining board evaluates the laid down report.>
- Appraisal of the oral presentation by the examining board.>
- The examining board evaluates the presentation.
PART II: Stage
- The training period counsellor of the company or institution fills
in the evaluation form of the stagair.>
- The training period leader of the university assesses the training
period and gives points.
However, if a student gains a score of 7 or less on 20 on one of the different courses (parts of training items), he proves that his skill for certain subcompetencies is insufficient. Consequently, one can turn from the arithmetical calculation of the final assignment of quotas of a training item and the new marks can be awarded on consensus. Of course the examiners can judge that the arithmetic regulations mentioned in the study index card can also be used for 7 or less. For each deviation a detailed motivation ought to be drawn up. In that case one should point out that the skill for this subcompetency is proven to be insufficient, if the student didn’t pass the partim that is considered to be important for certain subcompetencies.
