Prerequisites

Students must have passed at least 130 ECTS at the start of 6th semester in order to carry out the final research project. This is valid for students who carry out their bachelor project from spring term 2014.

Learning outcomes

On succesfull completion of the research project, the student should be able to
  • apply current knowledge and technology to analyze and solve problems for industry and public sector
  • write a scientific paper
  • disseminate a problem and a solution both orally and in writing, in scientific as well as general contexts

Contents

Under guidance from the academic staff, themes and problems are chosen by the students. The project is usually related to one of the central areas in the program. The availability of guidance determines if projects can be in other areas. As far as practically possible, projects should be in co-operation with industry firms so that students obtain experience in the industrial application of theoretical knowledge and an idea of the needs of industry.

Teaching and learning methods

The project is usually conducted in a group. In special circumstances, and with the acceptance of the study programme coordinator, individual projects are allowed. A supervisor shall be available for regular consultations.

Estimated work load for the average student is 27 hours per credit.
