More information about the MSc Thesis:
At the end of the second semester of each study cycle, the lecturers of the MSc program submit to the Director lists of thematic areas for MSc theses, which are made public to the students under the responsibility of the Director. The thematic areas must be part or a combination of different knowledge areas comprising the curriculum. Postgraduate students choose a subject area and a supervisor, where, with his approval, they submit a relevant application to the Secretariat.
The MSc thesis is evaluated based on the master's thesis documentation, the public presentation before the 3-member examination committee made by the student, as well as on the answers to questions put to him/her during the examination. The criteria concern the completeness and the originality of the theoretical study, as well as the development and application of AI methods, in the context of a theoretical or practical problem, based on the current and existing knowledge of the scientific community internationally.
The regulation for the preparation of the MSc Thesis refers to matters related to theses that are conducted during the 3rd academic semester of the Inter-institutional Postgraduate Program in "Artificial Intelligence". The regulation outlines the duration of the thesis preparation, issues concerning the assignment, examination, grading, and general communication with students.
The inter-institutional graduate studies program "ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE" concerns the field of Artificial Intelligence, as a distinct field of computer science and offers courses that cover a wide range of science and modern technologies, following current needs and trends. It also creates the foundations for its graduates to apply and improve existing, as well as develop new and innovative, Artificial Intelligence methods, promoting science and technology in this special and particularly important field.
With this regulation, the official process for submitting and managing complaints from students in the Inter-institutional Postgraduate Program in "Artificial Intelligence" is implemented, ensuring their satisfaction with their studies and preserving the program's reputation. This procedure concerns all complaints related to the quality of educational and administrative services provided by the Department.
