• give an account of current research challenges in visualisation and computer graphics
• search for research literature that is relevant for visualisation and computer graphics efficiently
• navigate the scientific publication landscape including conferences, journals and bibliometrics,
• read research articles efficiently and evaluate them with regard to structure and aspects such as novelty, technical soundness, evaluation and usability

in order to be able to benefit from academic research in their future career and thereby contribute to knowledge transfer to the industry.

Knowledge in computer graphics and visualisation, 12 credits, equivalent to at least two completed courses from the following list:

DD2258/DH2320 Introduction to Visualization, Computer Graphics and Image/Video Processing

DH2321 Information Visualization

DH2323 Computer Graphics and Interaction

DH2650 Computer Game Design

DD2257 Visualization

DH2413 Advanced Graphics and Interaction

Active participation in a course offering where the final examination is not yet reported in Ladok is considered equivalent to completion of the course.

Registering for a course is counted as active participation.

The term 'final examination' encompasses both the regular examination and the first re-examination.

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

• PRO1 - Project 1, 2.0 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F
• PRO2 - Project 2, 4.0 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
