Your thesis project starts from the idea of a thesis topic. The topic should come from a client company that you need to find out yourself. In practise, you work in a company, identify a development opportunity, formulate and agree on a topic with the company, write a thesis proposal and return it in Optima. That is when your thesis project has been initiated (step 1).
The proposal will be developed with a lecturer until it is approved and agreed with the client company (step 2). The supervisors from Laurea and the client company are confirmed in the agreement.
Commitment to the project schedule is confirmed in step 3.
The key milestones are listed below. The details of each step as well as the supporting templates and documents are given in Optima.

The implementation plan is available in Finnish.
Osaamisen arviointi perustuu opetussuunnitelmien tavoitekuvauksiin ja opinnon toteutussuunnitelmalla ilmoitettavaan arviointikriteeristöön (Laurean tutkintosääntö).
[Ohje: Kirjaa tähän arvioinnin kohteet, painotukset, arviointimenetelmät, arvioijat ja arvioinnin ajankohta. Tarkista opinnon tiedoista arvioinnissa käytettävä vaativuustaso. Soveltumattomia kriteereitä voi jättää pois, mutta kriteereitä ei ole tarkoituksenmukaista muuten muokata]

[Jätä soveltuvilta osin:] Opiskelijan, joka ei ole suorittanut hyväksytyksi opintojakson läpäisemiseksi asetettuja tehtäviä tai tenttejä, tulee täydentää tai uusia suorituksensa opintojakson opettajan määrittelemällä tavalla ja opettajan määrittelemässä ajassa. Hylätyn tentin tai muun suorituksen voi uusia kaksi kertaa. Varsinaiseen tenttiin osallistumatta jättäminen lasketaan yhdeksi suorituskerraksi. (Laurean tutkintosääntö.)
Kaikkien Laurean toimijoiden odotetaan noudattavan hyviä tieteellisiä käytänteitä, joihin kuuluu asianmukainen lähteisiin viittaaminen. Perehdy ja kysy käytänteistä tarvittaessa. Kaikki opintotehtävät tehdään yksilötyönä, jollei tehtävässä ole muuta ohjeistettu. [Urkundin käytöstä tehtävien tarkistuksen yhteydessä opettaja kertoo erikseen.] (not translated)

Tutkintosäännön 18§ mukaisesti ”opiskelijan on oltava ensimmäisellä kontaktikerralla läsnä tai ilmoitettava poissaolostaan vastuuopettajalle. Ilmoittautuminen hylätään, mikäli opiskelija ei ilmoita poissaolostaan opinnon aloituskerralta. Hänen tilalleen voidaan ottaa jonossa oleva seuraava opiskelija. (Lauran tutkintosääntö.) Virtuaalitoteutuksilla voidaan edellyttää muunlaista aktiivisuuden osoitusta paikan vahvistamiseksi viikon sisällä toteutuksen alkamisesta (Opetuksesta vastavan vararehtorin päätös 7/2019). ”
[Mikäli toteutuksen tiedoissa on ilmaistu, että toteutukselle on varattu paikkoja Avoimen AMK:n, 3AMKin tai väyläopintojen opiskelijoille, kerro kohderyhmälle varattu paikkamäärä tässä. Tarvittaessa tässä myös ilmaistaan mille kohderyhmälle täydentävän osaamisen opinto on ensisijaisesti kohdennettu, jos kohderyhmällä halutaan olevan etusija opintototeutukselle hyväksyttäessä.] (not translated)

Laurean tutkintosäännön mukaisesti kaikilla opiskelijalla on oikeus osaamisensa näyttämiseen. Aloitteen hankitun osaamisen tunnistamisesta ja tunnustamisesta tekee opiskelija. Osaamisen tunnistaa ja tunnustaa moduulista tai opintojaksosta vastaava opettaja tai muu korkeakouluyksikön johtajan nimeämä henkilö. Arvioinnissa noudatetaan samaa arviointikriteeristöä ja arviointiasteikkoa kuin opintojaksolla. Katso lisätietoa Linkistä.

[Mikäli opinnolla edellytetään pakollista läsnäoloa, on se kirjattava ja perusteltava opinnon toteutussuunnitelmassa (Laurean tutkintosääntö 18 §). Kerro esim. toteutuksen tehtävien palautuksesta, tenttien ja uusintamahdollisuuksien ajankohdista. Varsinainen toteutuksen aikataulu näkyy opiskelijalle Pakissa suoraan toteutuksen varauksina, joten näitä tietoja ei tarvitse tässä kentässä toistaa.] (not translated)

[Yksi opintopiste vastaa keskimäärin 26,7 tuntia opiskelijan tekemää työtä. Voit arvioida opiskelijan ajankäyttöä eri kokonaisuuksissa/tehtävissä. Kuormittavuuden laskemiseen löydät työvälineen Pepin opettajan työpöydän valikosta ”Toteutukset”. ] (not translated)
Sisältö ja sen jaksotus
[Kuvaa opinnon sisältö työelämän kielellä. Esim. jos opetat ohjelmoinnin perusteita, kerro myös mitä ohjelmointikieltä opetetaan. Tästä kentästä pitäisi löytyä samoja sanoja, kuin työpaikkailmoituksista. Kenttä toimii tekoälyä käyttävän palvelun perusteena jatkossa opintojen, työpaikkojen ja henkilökohtaisen osaamisen vertailussa.] (not translated)

If a student already has experience and skills in working with IP networks and IP protocols, he/she is adviced to contact the lecturers before the study unit starts, or no later than within a week from the start, if she/he is interested in demonstarting his/her skills according to HOT-process.
Attending the first on-line meeting is mandatory. If this is impossible, the student should contact the lecturers beforehand to verify his/her enlistment to the study unit.
The implementation is quite fast paced. Keeping up with the studies and deadlines is essential. In addition to the scheduled meetings, extra on-line meetings can be arranged to support the studies when necessary.
The study unit introduces students to networking basics (with emphasis on IP networks and protocols). The goal is to reach a level of expertise that makes it possible to identify network security threats and vulnerabilities. The learning content is divided into four themes that are scheduled to last for two weeks each. The themes begin with an on-line meeting/lecture, and continue with working on-line - either individually or in groups. The study unit implementation is designed to take the 1st half of the spring semester.
The student has not participated in the work during the study unit implementation adequately.
The student demonstrated learning at adequate level and took part to some on-line meetings.
The student demonstrated good learning outcomes and participated actively in the work during the study unit implementation.
The student demonstrated excellent learning outcomes and participated actively in the discussions during the study unit imlplementation and on-line meetings.

During this course students will learn in a practical approach key concepts and methods related to information management and databases. Databases are important components in most of today's information systems and applications. The concepts, tools, and methods covered during this course are an essential knowledge base for anyone willing to have a career in the ICT field.
At the beginning of the course, students will be introduced to key concepts and get an overview of the subject. Later, students will get acquainted with relational databases and how to use the SQL query language to search and manipulate data from a database. NoSQL databases are also discussed during the course.
A virtual learning environment (Viope) is used to offer students the possibility to practice SQL in a flexible manner.
Lectures are mostly practice-based workshops guided by the teachers.

Understanding customers can be challenging. Still it creates the basis for business development. To whom do you develop your service to? Who is your customer and who is the end user for the product or service? How are you able to find all necessary information and make different decisions based on it? How do you use this information in service design or development?
During this study unit we’ll go through different aspects of customer behavior. The focus and examples are from different digital services. In addition, you’ll get the possibility to analyze your own behavior as a customer.
The study unit grade is based on weekly assignments which need to be completed and returned before the deadlines.
