Research Methodology Project
Each postgraduate student is appointed to one of the research groups collaborating with the MSc and actively participates in current research work. In this way, he/she acquires real-time research experience (hands-on-experience), under the conditions of a research laboratory / study and improves soft skills and ability to collaborate. Essentially, the research methodology project provides the […]
