| TLXB10 | Final Thesis, ECTS-points /EXAMENSARBETE/ Advancement level: B | |
| Aim: The aim is to obtain more profound knowledge of mathematics and its application and to give experience of independent work in mathematics. Another aim is to develop the skill to present ones knowlegde and results in writing.Prerequisites: In order to be allowed to begin the final thesis, the student must have passed courses of at least 120 points, and at least 80 of those points must be in courses in mathematics. In particular the following courses (or equivalent ones) must have been passed: Algebra, 5 points (NMAA11); Linear algebra, 5 points (NMAA12); Mathematical analysis I and II, 20 points (NMAA13 and NMAB13); Linear analysis, 5 points (NMAC07); Ordinary differential equations, 5 point (NMAC08); Theory of analytic functions, 10 points (NMAC09). Deeper studies in addition to the requirements above may be demanded depending on the specialisation of the thesis.Course organization: The course consists of independent work. For every student a supervisor and an examiner is appointed. The examiner must be a teacher at the Department of Mathematics. A written plan of the work has to be made, and it has to be approved by the examiner. The thesis is examined by a written report and orally at a seminar.Course content: The content is defined individually for every student in consultation with the supervisor and the examiner.Course literature: The literature is defined individually. | ||
| The thesis is examined by a written report and is presented at a seminar. The student is also expected to act as "opponent" at the oral presentation of at least one other final thesis. Only the grades passed or failed will be used. | ||
