Introduction
Language of instruction: Norwegian/English
Under supervision, the students will conduct an independent research, quality improvement or development project, or a literature summary. Students can choose to write the master’s thesis individually or in pairs. On application, large, interdisciplinary innovation projects can be written in groups of up to four students. Students can also apply to write the master’s thesis with students from other specialisations if they so wish, provided that the scope of the master’s thesis is the same. If more than one student work on the master’s thesis together, each student’s contributions must be documented. The thesis can be written as a monograph or as a scientific article on a specialised topic.
The development of a project description in preparation for the master’s thesis is required coursework in the course, and this must at the latest be started during the previous semester. For a more detailed schedule, see the structure of the specific specialisation.
