- analyse and report a research issue within one or several of the congitive sciences or their related application areas.

Course content

The course covers current research in a profiling area, for example, design, development of technical artefacts, language engineering or human factors. The course is given in close relation to an ongoing cognitive science research project or with an external partner from industry or research institutes.

Teaching and working methods

The student works independently under the supervision of a researcher in the profiling area that the student has chosen to specialise in. The degree project includes, e.g., computer modelling, design tasks, empirical studies or development of technical artefacts.

Examination

The course is examined through a written project report. Detailed information can be found in the study guide. 

Students failing an exam covering either the entire course or part of the course twice are entitled to have a new examiner appointed for the reexamination.

Students who have passed an examination may not retake it in order to improve their grades.

Other information

Planning and implementation of a course must take its starting point in the wording of the syllabus. The course evaluation included in each course must therefore take up the question how well the course agrees with the syllabus. 

The course is carried out in such a way that both men´s and women´s experience and knowledge is made visible and developed.
