Computer Science - Master´s Thesis

The course combines theory and practice. Students carry out an investigation or a design task in groups. The task includes components such as choice of topic, problem formulation, planning, literature study, contact establishing, empirical data collecting, designing and reporting. Students also defend their own projects and peer review other projects.

Supervision is only offered to students while the course is in progress. Students who fail to complete the project satisfactorily during this time may re-register at the next course opportunity. They will then be offered additional supervision to the extent made possible by available resources.
