This thematic model has been carried out with the collaboration of numerous students, all of them with vocational training.
The characteristics and level of the students who have collaborated and participated in the module are different. There are groups of students from different countries who are pursuing different studies.
This thematic module has required a lot of motivation and collaboration between teachers and students given that the intended objective was quite ambitious: to create a chassis for the project’s rover. A laborious work of research, design and production has been done, always analyzing and documenting each part of the production process.
The students and teachers in this module have been enormously motivated and the result obtained has been magnificent.
In the units of this module, students have had the experience of working with real problems and materials which have improved their technical skills and their future employability.

➡ How to begin with CAO, and more
➡ Rover maintenance
➡ Rover part fabrication
