Course completion

The course will be arranged as a seminar. Seminar language will be English. Each participant will give a presentation on his/her subject from the material. Each student will report his/her subject in a seminar paper and will act as an opponent to two presentations.

The presentations need to be in the form of a properly written article.
Each presenter has to prepare good enough overhead material to support the presentation.
The papers should be written and presentations should be held in English.
For each presentation one or two participants will act as opponents.

Each participant will choose a subject from the candidated topics according to his/her interests and consult the course assistant about his/her preference. The participant may also reserve/suggest his/her own presentation topic. Your comments and suggestions towards improving the seminar are also welcome.

If an adequate amount of high-standard papers emerge they will be published in the Laboratory of Telecommunications Series. This may require additional work on the paper!

Note: Depending on the final scope of the seminar based on the number of participants and the quality of the individual papers, we may also increase the number of credits for the course to correspond the amout of work done.
