Additional information

The student has to agree the seminar topic with the teacher (Tuhkanen, Rintala) by end of September, 2012. The seminar topic must be based on earlier studies, and thus the review report and the related oral presentation must show a deeper knowledge in the topic concerned. As information sources the references cannot mainly be general study materials or general information taken e.g. from marketing websites. Main part of information sources must represent scientific writings.
