Learning Outcomes of UE

he master's thesis constitutes a research and/or development project in the field of computer science. This project is conducted within a university research laboratory or in the private sector, under the supervision of a mentor who proposes a thesis topic, guides the student in their approach, and provides advice. A thesis typically involves the following steps: an in-depth literature review on the topic, planning and conducting research and/or development activities, analyzing the results, and writing a document of a maximum length of 100 pages, excluding appendices. The presentation of the results follows the conventional structure in science, including an introduction, an objective, a description of methods and/or materials, presentation and discussion of results, conclusions, a list of bibliographic references, and appendices. During this work, the student acquires a range of skills, including the ability to independently analyze a problem and propose solutions, conduct experiments and interpret data, deepen their understanding of the scientific literature, and communicate abstract ideas and scientific results.

Evaluation is done based on the written report and the oral presentation. It takes into account the level of understanding of the subject, the quality of the written report, the oral presentation, and responses to questions during the oral defense.
