Thesis for Bachelor Degree in Informatics

Education facts

Code: GIK28T

All higher education has a scientific basis, and the purpose of the degree project is that students will be taught how to plan, implement and present their work, which is versatile, objective and well-substantiated in content. This means, among other things, that all interpretations and conclusions must be substantiated through the use of clear references to literature and to their own results. Students begin their work by formulating the goals for the project and by developing a project plan. Through, for example, a study of the literature, they follow this by describing the background, collecting data (from, for example, experiments or interviews) and, at the end stage, carrying out a detailed analysis and evaluation of the results. Students are taught to think in models, to make conscious and explicit simplifications, and to collect and analyse relevant information. Supervision during the degree project is provided jointly by the company (where applicable) and by lecturers at the University in regular meetings. During the supervision sessions, students are given the opportunity both to discuss different ways of defining and describing problems, and to choose theoretical starting points, strategies, and data collection and data analysis methods. Students document the degree project in the form of a report that is written in accordance with good scientific principles. To conclude, students must present their own degree project and act as opponent for another degree project.
