Advanced study techniques for university students

Paper in proceeding, 2023

The students starting at the Engineering Physics and Engineering Mathematics educations at Chalmers face challenges in terms of greatly increased workload and complexity of the subject matter compared to their previous education. Based on the experiences from teaching an introductory course in mechanics for nearly ten years (Ulf), the lack of efficient study techniques for a large number of students was identified. We have this year therefore offered the students a course in advanced study techniques (Daniel) tailored for university students, and also for their specific educations. We will here briefly describe the contents of the course and the preliminary impact on student learning.
