EMTS3900 Bachelor Thesis Course description

The bachelor's thesis is the final topic of the engineering education. It is a self-chosen task that is performed by students in a group. It will give students training in carrying out a large project independently and in using relevant methodology tools, and will be organised so that the students are able to use knowledge and skills from several fields.
