SF299X Degree Project in Mathematical Statistics, Second Cycle

A major part of the courses, at least 240 university credits, must be finished before the start of the degree project. The examiner must ensure that the student has sufficient knowledge within the specialisation and has a sufficient number of university credits. Exemption from these requirements can be given by the Director of Undergraduate Studies. The degree project should normally be performed during the last term of the studies.

Subject defined by the examiner. It should normally be a specialization within the chosen engineering discipline and be on advanced level. The project work shall correspond to 20 weeks full time studies. The results must be reported in written form and orally at a public seminar.

The student is expected to demonstrate the ability to:

• apply relevant knowledge and skills to a given problem within the engineering field of study,
• independently plan and carry out a project in mathematical statistics
• collect additional knowledge and information necessary for the completion of the task
• present the results in a written report and orally including a  discussion of the prerequisites, methodology, approach and results of the work
