The objectives will focus on:
- Understanding the scientific method in the context of telecommunications engineering.
- Acquiring the ability to formulate a problem related to telecommunications engineering in a scientific manner.
- Developing the capacity to conduct a systematic literature search and evaluate the current state of research in this specific field.
1. The Scientific Method
2. Bibliography and State of the Art
3. Generating Hypotheses and Questions
4. Experimental Design
5. Validation and Theoretical Approaches
Note: Topics may be adjusted and/or modified at the discretion of the Master's program coordinator.
The methodology used combines lectures, student participation, a practical in-class exercise, and the completion of a final challenge or research project. For students, this will involve group work with an oral presentation in class and individual work.
This subject will be assessed continuously based on the resolution of a proposed challenge, or alternatively, a research paper on existing solutions to a specific problem in the scientific field, and a final presentation in class and an individual assignment.
Continuous Assessment
This course will be assessed continuously through the resolution of a proposed challenge, or alternatively, a research project on existing solutions to a specific problem in the scientific field, a final in-class presentation, and an individual assignment.
The final grade will be weighted as follows:
- Group work: 45%
- Individual work: 45%
- Class participation: 10%
Residential Exam Opportunities
The schedule for the resit exam and/or assignments will be determined by the course coordinator.
