Abstract

This paper details a method for the organization of final year computer science projects which has been found to be extremely beneficial both from the point of view of the students and the supervisor. These projects count for 20% of the final degree result in this Department, and are a crucial part of the development of the student.The model proposed for the organization of the projects is one in which the students initially work in a group, co-operatively developing a basic platform on which they can then individually develop their projects. This organization allows the supervision to be achieved through regular group meetings, and provides the students with good experience (and all the benefits) of working in a group, while at the same time fulfilling the objective of getting the student to work on a complex task independently. An example of this project organization in practice, in the field of computer vision, is also detailed.
