Bachelor thesis

The bachelor's thesis is one of the first major publications created by university students. The thesis is evaluated by the supervisor and the opponent, or only by a consultant upon completion of individual professional practice. It is a ticket to a bachelor's degree. It can also serve as a basis for future professions. Students can further develop their work in diploma or dissertation theses. At the beginning of the summer semester of the second year, students choose the topic of the bachelor's thesis published in the EDISON system. First, they contact the supervisor of the chosen bachelor's thesis, meet with him and discuss the assignment of the final thesis. Subsequently, the topic is registered in the EDISON system. Students can come to the guarantor of the study program with a proposal of their own topic of the bachelor's thesis, who will assess it and possibly recommend a suitable supervisor. From this moment, it is appropriate to actively work on the implementation of the work and communicate with the supervisor of the final work. During the winter semester of the third year (usually in November), they will pick up the original assignment of the bachelor's thesis from the secretary of the Department of Cybernetics and Biomedical Engineering. This assignment must be entered officially as the second sheet of the bachelor's thesis. There are two compulsory subjects connected with the bachelor's thesis, namely Bachelor's seminar I in the winter semester and Bachelor's seminar II in the summer semester. These courses are completed by credits awarded by the supervisor of the bachelor's thesis. The award of credits is governed by the requirements for the award of credit published in the description of subjects in the EDISON system. Bachelor's theses must be submitted to IS Edison no later than the deadline specified on the original assignment of the bachelor's thesis. The bachelor's thesis is also submitted printed and bound in hardcover to the supervisor of the bachelor's thesis. Both versions of the bachelor's thesis - electronic and its printed version must be identical.

Study control

By the date specified in the academic year schedule, the student must have all subjects in his OSP in the PERFORMED state. Only credits from these subjects are included in the study control and for the calculation of the merit scholarship. In total, the student must obtain 180 credits for the study. The student must complete all enrolled courses (including optional ones), otherwise he / she will not be admitted to the final examination, even in the case of a sufficient number of credits.

Registration for the final state exam

Students register for the final examination in IS Edison within the term defined in the schedule of the respective academic year. Final examinations take place only at the turn of May and June (regular date) and then in August (corrective date, only for those students who failed the regular date in May). Only those students who have registered for the SZZ, have their bachelor's thesis in the SUBMISSION status, have successfully passed the study control and verified the data in IS Edison will be enrolled in the SZZ committee.

Expected course of the final state examination

Students will participate in the final examination according to the time schedule, which is compiled for individual commissions and days, see IS Edison.

The student arrives about 30 minutes before the allotted time according to the schedule.

First 15 minutes:

  • The recorder introduces the student to the state commission.
  • The student will receive a total of two questions from the state subjects of SZZ, which are available at the repository SMAK.VSB.CZ.
  • Students prepare answers to questions.

During the next 15 minutes, the student defends his bachelor's thesis.

  • The recorder reads the evaluation of the supervisor and the opponent of the diploma thesis.
  • The remaining time is reserved for questions from members of the commission regarding the diploma thesis.

Last 15 minutes:

The student answers the questions in the order he chooses.

The committee will announce the results of the final examination to the students, usually after consultation of the members of the committee after the student has completed all parts of the final examination.

The student obtains a total of 3 marks - from a bachelor's thesis and two state subjects. The mark from the bachelor's thesis is influenced by the marks from the opinions of the bachelor's thesis and especially by the mark for the defense of the bachelor's thesis.

The final grade of the SZZ (excellent, very good, good, failed) is determined on the basis of the evaluation of individual parts according to the table given in the Study and Examination Regulations for study in the bachelor's study programs of VŠB-TUO.

Students who fail the SZZ in June from any part of the SZZ can go to the correction date in August of the given year, or no later than two years from the regular date.

If the student does not succeed with the bachelor's thesis and the committee recommends the completion of the bachelor's thesis, the student can submit the revised bachelor's thesis, usually in July, so that he can go to the final date of the final examination in August. If the commission recommends a new topic of the bachelor's thesis, it is possible to go to the corrective SZZ only in the following academic year, or no later than two years from the regular date.

Enrollment of subjects of the 1st year of the follow-up master's study

Students who have submitted an electronic application for a follow-up master's degree and have it registered, are required to participate in the enrollment of winter and summer semester courses for the next academic year, which will take place within the deadline set by the academic year schedule. Students enroll in compulsory elective courses and then choose from the electives so as to obtain for the given academic year at least 60 credits from all enrolled courses (it is possible to enroll more credits, but a maximum of 70). Compulsory courses are enrolled automatically. Choose subjects responsibly, because with approval the OSP becomes binding and you must complete all enrolled subjects.

If students do not meet the conditions of the final control of the study, they must submit a written request to the study department to repeat the year or extend the examination period, or graduation.The student can repeat the same year only once.

Students who will repeat the final year and have already enrolled in any subject twice, must deliver to the study department application for the third registration of a subject (maximum two subjects).

Application forms can be found at https://www.fei.vsb.cz/cs/o-fakulte/uredni-deska/formulare/formulare-ke-studiu/.

Students who have not submitted the bachelor's thesis within the given deadline will submit it only in a repeated year according to the schedule of the academic year. During the winter semester of the following academic year, students can pick up a new original assignment (with a new date of submission of the ZP) from the secretary of the department. Students who can no longer repeat the final year and have not submitted the bachelor's thesis within the given deadline must submit an application to the study department for an extension of the examination period. These students must submit a bachelor's thesis by the end of the semester and must have all subjects in the PERFORMANCE state by the day of the study control. SZZ will take part in the next academic year in May / June.
