This course, focused on research and dissertation preparation, is a key element of the study programme. The project aims to develop the student's professional skills and general competences, specifically the student's ability to research and analyse problems, to locate and analyse relevant sources, to present the acquired knowledge and skills in a scientific text and to present in a professional scientific forum. The course is designed as a six-semester course, with the demands of student performance in the course increasing as the semesters progress. During the fifth semester, the student is required, in collaboration with his/her advisor, to select a topic related to the issues addressed in the dissertation for his/her scientific paper (identify the problem to be addressed) and prepare this scientific paper to be eligible for presentation at a scientific conference (ability to present the solution found to the selected problem). At the same time, the student will continue to prepare his/her dissertation during this semester. To successfully complete the course, the student is required to: - Actively present a paper at a scientific conference on a topic related to the issue treated in the dissertation and submit the paper in the form of a presentation or abstract to the supervisor (alternatively, publish an output corresponding to the topic of the paper in a professional journal or collective professional publication). - Produce and submit to your supervisor a comprehensive passage (chapter) of your dissertation of at least 50 pages of text
