Programme description

  • Introduction

    Assessment is pass/ fail.

  • Required preliminary courses

    The final essay is assessed by the course lecturer and one other examinator. External examinators will be used regularly. The assessment of the essay is based on the learning outcomes for the course.

  • Learning outcomes

    The course is primarily for PhD candidates. Unfilled places may be opened to applicants with a relevant Master’s degree or equivalent. Applicants must submit a summary (approximately one A4-sized page) containing information on their PhD project. The summary must be submitted before the deadline for applications.

  • Teaching and learning methods

    Lectures, practical work (group project), site visits, labs and experiments.

  • Course requirements

    None

  • Assessment

    The assessment will be based on a portfolio of the following:

    • Group project report (max 4000 words) and group presentation (20 min)
    • 4 individual assignments
    • An individual report documenting lab work, demonstrations and experiments (max 2000 words)

    The portfolio will be assessed as a whole. 

    The written parts of the exam can be appealed. The presentation cannot be appealed. If the overall grade changes as a result of the appeal a new presentation must be held. 

    New/postponed exam

    In case of failed exam or legal absence, the student may apply for a new or postponed exam. New or postponed exams are offered within a reasonable time span following the regular exam. The student is responsible for registering for a new/postponed exam within the time limits set by OsloMet. The Regulations for new or postponed examinations are available in Regulations relating to studies and examinations at OsloMet.

    In the event of a postponed examination in this course the exam may be held as an oral exam. Oral exams cannot be appealed.

  • Grading scale

    For the final assessment, a grading scale from A to E is used, where A denotes the highest and E the lowest pass grade, and F denotes a fail.
