MRES.C.01 MSc Thesis
MSc Thesis is the final outcome a research study on a specific topic within the broad field of Electrical and Electronics Engineering. In the present MSc Program, the topic is defined upon enrollment of the MSc student and research on it is carried out throughout the duration of the program (typically, 3 academic semesters).
The major objective of the MSc Thesis is to lead the student to delve into the selected topic of research within the broad field of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, to develop novel approaches, methods, solutions or designs and thus contribute to the advancement of science and technology in the field. In doing so, the student is gradually brought to the state of the art in the science and technology of the field.
An equally important objective is the introduction and initiation of students to research methodology and procedures, the cultivation of their scientific and research interests, the familiarization of students to the rules and ethics of research and the development of their research skills.
A typical MSc thesis comprises an initial literature review, the definition of research questions that should bear elements of novelty, theoretic study of the problem at hand and results, as well as – where applicable – practical implementation or construction of a prototype and measurements or data analysis to verify the results of the theoretic study. The students are guided to adopt and implement a carefully chosen methodology in order to systematically address and answer their research problems or questions. Results are used to compose answers to the research questions, followed by discussion and critical appraisal of the whole research study and conclusions.
