090146198Dissertation54(0-0-54)
 Research procedure in interesting topics both in foundation knowledge and industrial aspects with analytical and research problem solving processes to gain fundamental knowledge and/or to originally improve related processes or with significant development or to be applied expecting significant impact. The dissertation is based on referencing related fundamentals and theories, defining the research purpose, scoping the work, literature review, model development, experimental plan and procedures, analysis of data and results, discussion of the results, drawing conclusions and outlook for further research. The candidate has to pass the qualifying exam, dissertation proposal, progress examination, and finally defense exam. The output of the dissertation must be delivered as research articles in international journals as well as dissertation.
