Content information
Compulsory research oriented project work, which may be carried out either within the University or an external company.
If carried out within the University it is desireable to be executed within a team of 4 people.
In both cases, the research topic needs to be agreed upon with University staff prior to starting the project work.
A written 2-4 page proposal needs to be provided prior to commencement , comprising:
- Title and abstract
- Research hypothesis / possible outcome
- Separation into research and development components
- Preliminary table of content
- 4 relevant literature references

The master research project requires independent and self-contained work on R&D projects to deepen the knowledge obtained from lectures. New research hypothesis may be developed independently.

The project work typically includes:
• Creation of literature surveys and comparative studies
• Creation and assessment of methods according to standard research methodologies
• Execution of experiments and documentation
• Creation, implementation and documentation of tools and applications (development on a scientific basis)
• Publishing research results

The actual topic has to be discussed on an individual basis with a faculty member prior to commencement.
