About this course
Learning outcome
Independent study of relevant material with mentoring as well as presentation for (and discussion with) fellow students. The students choose a topic the latest by the start of the course, preferably relevant for their master thesis. The students prepare a presentation and a written report on the topic, and present the presentation to their fellow students. The students attend the presentations and scientific discussions following the presentations.
Recommendation: Do discuss the choice of topic and its relevance with your prospective Master thesis advisor beforehand.
- Online learning resources will be connected to lectures and exercises through the course webpages in Canvas. The writing center can be utilised as a support during the writing process. The students get an introduction to making presentations and written material, how to refer to published material and re-use of material. The students get comments on a draft report and a nearly finished report.
