The Graduation module (Module D) reflects the core principle of the HCAIM programme that is built on the concept of project-based learning (PBL). The goal of this module is to position the graduation project (making a professional product) centrally in the student’s learning trajectory. As part of their Graduation project (the Master Thesis), students show that they can independently solve challenges proposed by the industry based on current needs and requirements, considering both the technical and the ethical aspects of the issue at hand.
Each thesis is considered locally, with an internal supervisor (a professor from the University in which the student is pursuing the degree) and an external supervisor belonging to the party proposing the thesis (if any). This latter aspect, despite not being mandatory, is rigorously pursued. The proposing party can be an SME, an Excellence Centre, or another University, both at a national and international level. Proposing parties are expected to provide both national and international thesis (i.e. thesis organised in with a University from the same country or from a foreign one).
The student recognizes and reflects on the AI lifecycle in a realistic, industry-informed context, and in diverse locations, scenarios and use cases.
