BACHELOR THESIS
General information
Students are expected to dedicate between two and three person-months to the thesis project. In order to ensure the required workload, it is recommended that students allocate to the thesis project both the thesis credits and the 6 CFU internship in their study plan.
Thesis in the industry
For those who intend to carry out the thesis in a company, it is recommended to devote themselves to it full-time after completing the coursework of the Bachelor’s programme, that is, during the summer following the third year. Students are encouraged to independently seek a company willing to host them, as unfortunately we are unable to provide direct support in this process.
Thesis in IRMA L@B
Theses carried out within my research group focus on topics in robotics and, in particular, mechatronics. They are demanding, as they complement the teachings of the Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering. A strong passion, a genuine willingness to learn, and a proactive attitude are essential. The number of theses of this kind that we can host is limited; typically, we are unable to accommodate more than four students due to internal resource constraints (space and staff).
