| Course Objectives: | The course targets improving and extending in-depth knowledge of a PhD student in the areas related to his/her thesis topic by means of one-to-one study with the student’s thesis supervisor. In the proposed course, during the class hours the student and his/her thesis supervisor will discuss scientific papers related to the thesis topic, and therefore the supervisor will not fulfill a regular teaching activity, but instead will provide scientific guidance to the student. |
|
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. Define and construct a research topic 2. Describe ways to perform efficient literature search 3. Apply literature review 4. Identify the gap in the literature 5. Construct comparisons of the state-of-the-art methods researched 6. Show written skills to realize a survey report |
