Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
Intended learning outcomes
On completion of the course, the student should be able to solve a design or investigative task in theoretical computer science with limited supervision, and to report the result of such a task. It implies to be able to:
- independently plan, carry out and report a design or investigative task in theoretical computer science,
- acquire and evaluate information applicable for carrying out the task,
- choose a course of approach and define, follow and follow up a plan for carrying out the task in a given resource budget,
- write readable reports in English or Swedish that satisfy established norms as to structure, language and contents,
- orally report a work with certain requirements of preparation, structure, style and time,
- show increased knowledge and skills in theoretical computer science
in order to
- apply and deepen his or her knowledge in theoretical computer science in a larger individual project work.
