Content (Syllabus outline)
  • Selection of the master thesis field (field of physics, interdisciplinary field);
  • overview of relevant literature;
  • acquaintance with experimental and theoretical methods, as well as with the laboratory environment where the research is going to be conducted;
  • research plan.
Readings

Odvisna od področja magistrskega dela; poleg temeljne literature pri predmetih, povezanih s temo magistrskega dela, še znanstveni članki z ustreznega področja; pregledne in specialistične revije po nasvetu mentorja.
Depending on the subject of the master thesis; beside the basic literature for the courses related to the thesis also scientific papers from the field and other expert literature based on the supervisors recommendation.

Objectives and competences

Objectives:
familiarity with practical research work and capability of independent scientific and research development problems solving

Competences:
systematic solving of problems related to the thesis; preparation of experimental setup or theoretical method for measurement/discussion of the chosen subject under supervisors guidance;
critical choice of relevant parameters and research methods related to the subject of the thesis

Intended learning outcomes
