&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;container_h left&quot;&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;content_h&quot;&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;1974&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;&amp;ldquo;Organization and Design of Economic Information Processing&amp;rdquo;&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;content_h&quot;&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;1992&lt;/h2&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This page contains essential information, deadlines, and technical instructions related to the preparation and defense of diploma projects for students in the &amp;ldquo;Bachelor&amp;rdquo; degree program. A mandatory requirement for admission to the defense is the successful completion of all exams.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;1380&quot; data-end=&quot;1455&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://moodle.unwe.bg/course/view.php?id=233&quot; class=&quot;btn btn-primary&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;Moodle course for diploma projects defense&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you completed your studies in previous years but are now preparing to defend your diploma project and do not have access to the Moodle course, please write to: &lt;strong&gt;stateExam.itc@unwe.bg&lt;/strong&gt; or &lt;strong&gt;ivonavelkova@unwe.bg&lt;/strong&gt;. Please note that if you graduated in 2020 or earlier, it is important to contact the &amp;ldquo;Bachelor&amp;rdquo; Office to confirm whether you have a &lt;strong&gt;state exam&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;1. Selection of topic and type of application&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The selection of a topic and type of application for the diploma project is carried out &lt;strong&gt;through the BPM system&lt;/strong&gt; within the announced deadlines for the respective session. More information can be found &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://moodle.unwe.bg/course/view.php?id=233&quot;&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. Students must make their selection within the deadline, as the system will not allow changes after it expires.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;2. Work on the diploma project and corrections&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After submitting the initial project in the system, the diploma project is reviewed by a consultant assigned by the department. If necessary, the project may be returned for corrections, and the student must address the comments and resubmit it within the specified deadline through BPM.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;3. Submission of the diploma project&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The final submission of the diploma project is done &lt;strong&gt;exclusively through the BPM system&lt;/strong&gt;, in accordance with the schedule for the respective session (winter / summer / autumn).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;4. Plagiarism check by students&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to Article 2 of the UNWE document &amp;ldquo;Temporary rules for electronic verification of the originality of diploma papers (master&amp;rsquo;s theses),&amp;rdquo; the student (author of the diploma project) personally performs the electronic originality check and sends the results to their consultant. The check is requested through an electronic application in the UNWE system at the following link: &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a aria-label=&quot;Link https://shorturl.at/RPzdd&quot; id=&quot;menurvb&quot; href=&quot;https://shorturl.at/RPzdd&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; class=&quot;fui-Link ___1q1shib f2hkw1w f3rmtva f1ewtqcl fyind8e f1k6fduh f1w7gpdv fk6fouc fjoy568 figsok6 f1s184ao f1mk8lai fnbmjn9 f1o700av f13mvf36 f1cmlufx f9n3di6 f1ids18y f1tx3yz7 f1deo86v f1eh06m1 f1iescvh fhgqx19 f1olyrje f1p93eir f1nev41a f1h8hb77 f1lqvz6u f10aw75t fsle3fq f17ae5zn&quot; title=&quot;https://shorturl.at/rpzdd&quot;&gt;https://shorturl.at/RPzdd&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Without this check, you cannot be admitted to the defense.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-teams=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The presentation of the diploma project during the defense is carried out &lt;strong&gt;on a personal laptop/computer&lt;/strong&gt;. The connection to the multimedia is via &lt;strong&gt;HDMI cable&lt;/strong&gt;; therefore, if your device does not have an HDMI interface, you must provide an appropriate adapter.&lt;/p&gt;
