Design-build experience, which is one of the CDIO standards, is a central experience when learning the process of developing new products and systems. We describe the development of a multi-disciplinary DBT course, which comprises both an industrial relevant student project and non-technical exercises like project management, teamwork (team dynamics) and communication. The goal is to create a learning environment where students from different study program worked together in projects resembling the conditions for project work in the industry. We believe that this approach will promote valuable skills in the field of product and system development which is important for the students’ future role as engineers.
