MUPIC COURSE

A multimodal online course was developed to support students' work in international multidisciplinary project teams. The online course is a part of the MUPIC educational model, where students work in international multidisciplinary teams on a real-life assignment from a company. The MUPIC educational model is a blended learning/ teaching activity that takes eight months. The activity starts with a face-to-face Kick-Off week (5 days) when students from different world universities meet for the first time and form international and multidisciplinary teams. After that, the students work online on a real-life assignment. The students' progress is checked at several checkpoints before the final submission. The Final presentations finish the course, and evaluation week is realized face-to-face.

The course consists of six modules:

Module 1 Intercultural and Virtual Communication

Module 2 Language

Module 3 Project Management

Module 4 Engineering Design

Module 5 Strategy and Business

Module 6 Industrial Design
