PURPOSE

University degrees are research-based degrees; At the end of the bachelor's program, all students must have gained insight into an aspect of the subject's research area. The theme for the semester is cyber physical systems, ie systems that contain both embedded software and a physical component that often involves an interaction directly with people. It is possible to treat Cyber ​​Physical Systems from different research perspectives

Knowledge

• document knowledge of and overview of the relevant techniques and concepts within a computer science research area
• use correct subject terminology

Skills

• reason about and with the concepts and techniques concerned
• justify and choose relevant solution models based on knowledge of the possibilities and limitations given by the subject area's theories and methods
• convey a computer science problem and the associated conceptual apparatus

Competences

• apply the concepts and reasoning within the subject area to analyze and solve a selected problem within the chosen computer science subject area
• demonstrate a coherent understanding of the project's relationship to the subject area

Type of instruction

Project work supported by digital resources on knowledge search.

The project work must include:

• an analysis of a computer science problem and a formulation of a problem within it
• a solution and perspective of this problem

The project report can be designed as a scientific article of form and length
