During the course the student is trained in specify, plan, conduct and present an individual work. The student applies their knowledge and gained during the studies, and gets immersed in a topic. Through the thesis work the student get in contact with research and development in the field of study. The results are presented orally and in writing. International contacts are encouraged in the thesis work.
The course is divided into three parts:
1. Project Planning and pre-study, 3.0 ECTS.
The thesis starts off with project planning and a pre-study that result in a project plan. Problem definition and project demarcation is done in discussion with the client.
