Enabling students to independently use literature, identify problems and offered solutions.
Contents of the course
Theoretical instruction:
- The student, in cooperation with the mentor, visits the appropriate institution (institution) or company dealing with the selected field of geodetic engineering and in cooperation with their experts identifies potential practical problems and tasks whose solution may be the subject of a master's thesis. Based on that, the student prepares a seminar paper on a selected topic that contains a review of the literature in the selected area, identification of the problem to be solved, description of methods for solving the problem, conclusions and proposal of the content of the master thesis. Depending on the topic, part of the applied research work can be done in the field, on the construction site, in the real estate cadastre service, in offices or in metrological laboratories.
Practical instruction (Problem solving sessions/Lab work/Practical training):
- Scientific and professional monographs, textbooks, scientific and professional journals, conference proceedings, project documentation of realized projects, etc.
