About

Lasse Husman is a dedicated educator and researcher in engineering education, with a particular focus on project-based learning and robotics. His most cited work, "Project in robotics at The Copenhagen University College of Engineering" (2004, 14 citations), details the development of a small autonomous mobile robot as the centerpiece of an interdisciplinary undergraduate course. This paper highlights his major contribution: designing and implementing hands-on, cross-disciplinary curricula that bridge theory and practice. By integrating robotics into a 20 ECTS point, 4th-semester course, Husman demonstrated how real-world engineering challenges can foster deep learning and collaboration among students. His work has influenced pedagogical approaches in engineering programs, emphasizing the value of tangible projects in developing problem-solving and technical skills. Though his citation count is modest, the impact of his educational innovations is evident in the continued relevance of his course design and its adoption as a model for similar initiatives. Husman’s commitment to experiential learning has left a lasting mark on engineering education, inspiring both students and educators to embrace project-based methodologies.
