The project will most often be associated ongoing internally or externally funded research projects but can also be carried out in cooperation with research institutions and industry. It is emphasized that the student shall learn to work systematically within the chosen topic, and also learn how to obtain detailed knowledge through literature studies and practical work. The student will ha a mandatory oral presentation of the project at the end of the semester.
