Completed courses of at least 120 ECTS credits of which 90 credits must be in the following areas: Software Engineering, Computer Science. At least 30 credits must be in one or more of the following areas: Programming, Object-oriented Systems, Software Design, Data Structures and Algorithms, Database Technology, Data Communications, Real Time Systems, Operating Systems. In addition, completed courses in Mathematics of at least 15 credits is required.
The aim of the course is to enable students to discuss and practise a scholarly approach, to gain knowledge of current research in a chosen field and to practice academic writing. A key issue in software enginnering and computer science research is developing, evaluating and comparing methods, tools, languages, models/designs and algorithms and their impact on different systems, organisations and people.
The course provides students with an understanding of the research methodology that enables such evaluations and comparisons. Furthermore, the students will be introduced to the societal and ethical aspects of the research and evaluation in question and gain experience of planning, executing and reporting a research project.
