Course introduction
The bachelor’s thesis represents the completion of the bachelor’s programme in Physics. The project is thus intended to document that the student has acquired the professional knowledge and the theoretical and experimental qualifications that enable the student to identify, formulate, solve, and discuss issues related to a specific physical subject.

Qualifications
A student with a Bachelor degree in Physics can:

  • Identify and structure self-learning, for example by finding relevant research papers and other literature and apply this to enlighten the problem and decide which theoretical and experimental investigations have relevance for the project.
  • Conduct theoretical and/or experimental investigations that contribute to solving the problem.
  • Describe and explain the problem and results, in terms of physical models, for colleagues as well as non-specialists.
  • Report the results in a precise and clear language.
Expected learning outcome
A student with a Bachelor degree in Physics can:
  • Define a physical problem and in collaboration with others write a project outline, which aims at solving the problem.
  • Explain the applied theories and models.
  • Evaluate own results in the context of existing knowledge.
Subject overview
The subject of the project is determined in collaboration with a supervisor, and the project description is approved as part of the bachelor’s project contract by the supervisor, the department, and the study board.

Literature
