Organisation:
At an introductory lecture the ongoing research at the Department och Physics and Measurement technology is presented. The attendees annouce their interest in some area(s). Researchers in these areas try to formulate minor problems that can be separated from a larger research project and under the guidance of the researcher the probleme shall be solved. The students normally work 2 together. The work gives experience of/contact with
planning and carrying out a small project
writing a report on a original work
methods of research in physics
The course runs over the entire autumn semester.
