    Welcome to Exercise on information seeking!


    Information seeking constitutes a major part of university studies. In order for you to be successful in your Master's thesis, you must be able to conduct a search broader than was required in your previous studies. The sole purpose of this exercise is to support you in your information seeking.

    To complete this exercise, you will find helpful additional information from, for example, Aalto University Learning Centre's Guide to information retrieval and resource guides.

    For any questions about the exercise, please contact Kirsi Heino (050 3161009, kirsi.heino(at)aalto.fi).
