Course content
This course aims at extending the knowledge acquired in TMM4205, TMT4255, or similar master level courses by going more in detail in the different topics. The course will focus on the needs of the PhD students i.e., the contents will be tailor made according to the PhD work plan and needs. The aim is to provide the student with tools within their field to perform proper and adequate research.
Learning outcome
In this course the PhD student will learn how to prepare a small research project going deeper in one of the topics related to his/her PhD work. Deeper knowledge will be acquired in one specific topic and skills like research reporting and presentation will be also acquired.
Learning methods and activities
The student will prepare a weekly presentation of one or some of the selected research papers out of the list made at the start of the course. The goal is to have a discussion about the research presented in the papers and go deep in the topic.
The final delivery of the course will be a presentation with the summary of the main learning outcomes of the course. In this presentation the supervisor of the student will be present and a discussion similar to a PhD defence will take place.
