About the course
Course content
The course is taught and supervised in Norwegian.
The course focuses on the collection of condition data and the use of such data in decisions regarding the operation and maintenance of technical installations.
The course is divided into the following 4 modules:
Predictive Maintenance (PM) with a focus on:
- Terminology
- Establishing goals and strategies for PM
- Management of PM
Collection and Processing of Condition Data with a focus on:
- Selected methods for collecting condition data
- Processing of condition data
Condition Data Used in Diagnosis and Prognosis with a focus on:
- Mathematical/statistical models
- Brief introduction to machine learning
- Visualization of diagnosis and prognosis
Operations and Maintenance Decisions:
- Use of diagnosis and prognosis derived from condition data in maintenance decisions

- Operational reliability
- Lifetime
- Sustainability
- Health and environment
- Economy
- Ability to formulate and discuss technical solutions within predictive operations and maintenance with skilled workers and leading personnel on a professional basis.
- Ability to critically and reflectively approach condition-based operations and maintenance.
Learning methods and activities
In addition to physical teaching, lectures will be streamed and recordings will be made available on NTNU’s digital learning platform.
Learning methods and activities include, but are not limited to:
- Interactive lectures using digital tools
- Digital exercises
- Exercises in the classroom
- Laboratory exercises in groups
- Project work / problem-based learning in groups (graded semester assignment)
Students will submit a graded semester assignment in groups. It is expected that students themselves will be the driving force in completing the semester assignment.
Mandatory coursework requirements:
To be eligible for the exam, the candidate must have submitted and received approval for the following:
- Digital quizzes - a specified number (individual submission)
- Reflection notes - a specified number (individual submission)
- Registered in a semester assignment group (individual registration)
- Collaboration agreement for the semester assignment group (group submission)
- A3 poster presenting the semester assignment (group submission)
The mandatory coursework requirements must be submitted on NTNU’s digital learning platform.
Compulsory assignments
- A3 poster of semester assignment
- Group registration semester assignment
- Agreement of cooperation semester assignment
- Digital Quiz
- Reflection paper
Further on evaluation
Mandatory activities from previous semesters can be approved by the department when retaking the course, provided there have not been significant changes in the course structure.
The assessment in the course (A-F) is based on:
- Written school exam in Inspera, which counts for 40% of the total grade
- A group assignment submitted in Inspera, which counts for 60% of the total grade
Both the school exam and the group assignment must be passed to receive a grade in the course.
Permitted aids for the exam: G: Specified printed and handwritten aids allowed. All calculators allowed.
Deferred exam (continuation exam) is arranged in August. For the deferred exam, the written exam may be changed to an oral exam.
Continuation and voluntary retake/improvement can be carried out for individual partial assessments without retaking both partial assessments in the course (provided the course’s assessment scheme has not changed). It is possible to appeal partial assessments in this course before all partial assessments are completed.
