Hiring a student for a thesis
A degree project is extensive and usually lasts 10 to 20 weeks of full-time study. The choice of thesis is made by the student, but the topic must be approved by the university.
Important to consider
Copyright and agreements
- The student owns the copyright of the thesis.
- When writing a contract, it should be made clear who owns the project results, including any patents. Without an agreement, the student owns the results, this is particularly important if remuneration is paid.
- Normally, the client is responsible for costs such as printing, postage and travel.
- Salary issues are settled directly between the student and the company, without the involvement of the university.
Examination and the principle of publicity
- The degree project is part of the program's examination and is presented both in writing and orally at the university.
- Luleå University of Technology is a public authority and is therefore subject to the principle of public access, which means that the thesis becomes a public document after the examination. Therefore, discuss and determine how sensitive information will be handled.
Assignment identification and scientific requirements
- Clarify what is to be investigated and what problem is to be solved.
- Formulate a problem statement that is appropriate and meets the requirements for a thesis. And ensure that the work meets the requirements of scientificity and other rules for a thesis.
