Supervisors
The student is supported by the internal tutor (supervisor) and possibly by the external tutor (supervisor), however the task must be solved individually. The supervisors cannot provide the student with the solution of the task but they assist him/her in utilizing the literature read, tutorials and other documentations of the company, pointing out exaggerations, consequences of bad start or wrong calculations, laying down the conditions for individual work.
It is essential to start consulting with your selected supervisor on time. Alongside the production of the thesis continuous consultation is needed. Consultation is mandatory before you start the work and before you submit it. Sub-tasks to be solved are specified by the supervisors.
The profoundness of the elaboration and the proportion of the parts are specified by the supervisors, primarily by the internal one. Thesis is said to be appropriate for submission by the supervisors if it is entirely elaborated and meets the requirements of form and content.
Please take into account what kind of literature is available in regard with your selected topic.
Students are expected to give account of the work done on thesis in the framework of consultations, which is one of the requirements for the course, called MSc Thesis II.
The list below is not exhaustive. Students can contact any instructor with their own thesis topic suggestion.
The conditions on the acceptance of thesis as National Conference of Scientific Students’ Association (hereinafter NCSSA) topic are specified by the Faculty. The NCSSA work is supposed to meet the requirements in form and content for thesis. Furthermore, it is necessary that the committee of the Pre-NCSSA makes suggestions on the NCSSA work to become a thesis.
