Course contents
Intended learning outcomes
The goal of the course is to provide an opportunity to do an experimental or theoretical in-depth study in an area of special interest to to the student where there is competence within the department. Typically the course content could be a well defined instrumentation design/construction project, some experimental work, or a theoretical/simulation study. After a completed project the student should be able to take completesimilar design projects as well as be able to provide a sufficient documentation of the work as was the case in an industrial context.

Grading scale
Examination
- ANN1 - Exercise, 7.5 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F
Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.
The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
Other requirements for final grade
The result of the project should be a a) A lab instrumentation/lab demo/ some theoretical/simulation resultb) A technical report (max 10 pages) on the above written by the studentc) A one page web-page written by the student (send the HTLM code to the course examiner) to describe the result in a popular fashion. This will later be used to advertise the course on the web-page of the course (see this as a recruitment opportunity for your lab).
Opportunity to complete the requirements via supplementary examination
Opportunity to raise an approved grade via renewed examination
