NB! This is an elective course and may be cancelled if fewer than 10 students are enrolled by August 20th.
The project gives practice in solving a research assignment within the computer science area. The project is intended as a pre-project for the master thesis. Project tasks are announced by the Department before the semester starts; projects can also be proposed by the student or a company, but approval is strict. It is not required that the student continues the work in a master thesis project, but such an opportunity is given in some cases. That is, the student is free to choose another master project. The Department assigns projects based on grades and the students ability to solve the selected task. If the student lacks the necessary prerequisites, one may risk not being assigned a project.
Every project must have a responsible Professor and a supervisor. For Department projects, the supervisor and responsible Professor may be the same person.
If deemed suitable by the supervisor, it is possible to take the project as group work with maximum two students per group. In this case, the division of tasks between each group member should be clearly stated in the final joint report. The total workload for each student will correspond to 10 ECTS.
