Physics, Degree Project

The degree project aims to give you both insights and experience with scientific research. You will produce a scientific report and present your research results orally in a scientific seminar.

The time frame of the project is limited to 10 weeks. It is part of the bachelor programme in physics, but can also be taken as a free-standing course if you fulfill the eligibility requirements. As a part of the degree project you will also participate in the course “Science Ethics” (“Vetenskaplighet”) in which you will learn about the different ethical aspects associated with scientific research.
