Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives:

The purpose of a thesis is to enable the student to develop deeper knowledge, understanding, capabilities and attitudes in the context of the program of study. The thesis should be written at the end of the program and offers the opportunity to delve more deeply into and synthesize knowledge acquired in previous studies. A thesis for a Master of Science in Software Engineering programs should place emphasis on the technical/scientific/architectural aspects of the subject matter.

Course Content:

The task consists of independent work, which must be carried out individually. The task includes topic selection, problem formulation and problem definition, literature studies, empirical data collection including practical experiments, development, preparation of a report as well as presentation and defense of the report at a seminar. The report must meet certain scientific criteria. The course also includes opposition on another group's thesis report.

1) Specific learning objectives that are to be fulfilled in the master's thesis are that the student should be able to: in their project use essential in-depth knowledge of the major subject/field of study and, in a scientifically correct way, relate to current research and development work;
2) Specific learning objectives that are to be fulfilled in the master's thesis are that the student should be able to: choose and state one's reasons for selecting their project method with respect to the major subject/field of study;
3) Specific learning objectives that are to be fulfilled in the master's thesis are that the student should be able to: contribute to research and development work, and be able to relate their work to relevant scientific or technical/industrial/architectonic contexts;
4) Specific learning objectives that are to be fulfilled in the master's thesis are that the student should be able to: based on a holistic view, critically, independently and creatively identify, formulate and deal with complex issues;
5) Specific learning objectives that are to be fulfilled in the master's thesis are that the student should be able to: plan and, with adequate methods, carry out qualified tasks within the designated framework and also be able to evaluate this work;
6) Specific learning objectives that are to be fulfilled in the master's thesis are that the student should be able to: create, analyse and critically evaluate different technical/architectonic solutions;
7) Specific learning objectives that are to be fulfilled in the master's thesis are that the student should be able to: critically and systematically integrate knowledge;
8) Specific learning objectives that are to be fulfilled in the master's thesis are that the student should be able to: present and discuss their conclusions as well as the knowledge and arguments these are based upon both in spoken and written English;
9) Specific learning objectives that are to be fulfilled in the master's thesis are that the student should be able to: observe and discuss ethical aspects of research and development work, both pertaining to how the work is carried out as well as what it explores/develops;
