Intended learning outcomes
A master thesis project (exjobb) is an independent investigation or a design work dealing with engineering scientific problems. The work has to be a direct application of the knowledge and skills assimilated by the master student during his/her engineering studies and be oriented toward the area defined by the specialization block chosen by the student. The level of difficulty of the master thesis work should satisfy the normal requirements of a master of engineering (civilingenjör). A Master thesis project should deal with direct applications of the latest in the area. It has to contain a certain novelty with a good amount of literature study, appropriate models and assumptions, methods to be used, own analysis, and/or systematic problem solving.
