Master's level

Exchange students may combine this course with other available courses within their field of study:

Technology and Environmental Sciences exchange programme - Western Norway University of Applied Sciences

A number of smaller individual assignments involving software technology experiments and an associated laboratory report. The assignments must be submitted within set deadlines and must be approved before examination can take place. Progress and final presentations related to the group project on design and implementation of a smart software system.

Approved assignments and presentation are valid for the examination semester and the two following semesters.
