Your master thesis is published online upon agreement. See also https://student.slu.se/en/studies/degree-projects/
As a student, you are responsible for identifying and choosing a suitable task for the independent work. To be accepted to the course, you must have made an agreement with the supervising department regarding the supervisor and topic of the work before the course starts. Therefore, contact the course leader or potential supervisor well in advance about the possibility of doing independent work at a department.
