Content and learning outcomes
Course disposition
Course contents
A project consists of an individual task with a focus on and topic within a certain area of physics. Deepening in the subject of physics within the framework of the project. Deepening in communicating both in writing and orally.
Intended learning outcomes
After passing the course, the student must be able to:
- Apply knowledge and skills acquired during the course of study to problems in any chosen area of physics.
- Formulate problems and use appropriate solution methods in the chosen area.
- Use independent forms of study to consolidate and deepen your knowledge in physics.
- Present the work in both written and oral form with requirements for content, structure and language.
Literature and preparations

Examination and completion
If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.
Grading scale
P, F
Examination
- PRO1 - Project, 7.5 credits, grading scale: P, F
- PRO2 - Project, 7.5 credits, grading scale: P, 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.
The project must be presented in both written and oral form, i.e. the course element PRO1 is written and the course element PRO2 is oral. Usually, PRO1 consists of a written report, while PRO2 is an oral presentation in the form of a public seminar, which should be similar to those for advanced level thesis presentations.
Other requirements for final grade
Approved project work, i.e. approved course elements PRO1 and PRO2.
Opportunity to complete the requirements via supplementary examination
No information inserted
Opportunity to raise an approved grade via renewed examination
No
Examiner
Ethical approach
- All members of a group are responsible for the group's work.
- In any assessment, every student shall honestly disclose any help received and sources used.
- In an oral assessment, every student shall be able to present and answer questions about the entire assignment and solution.
