PS9100 Fundamental Concepts and Discourses in Business Administration, Innovation and Governance Course description

Vurderingsuttrykket er en gradert skala med fem trinn fra A til E for bestått og F for ikke bestått.

Det benyttes en intern og en ekstern sensor til sensurering av oppgavene. Et uttrekk på 20 prosent av besvarelsene sensureres av ekstern sensor. Karakterene på de besvarelsene som er vurdert av ekstern sensor danner grunnlag for å fastsette nivå på besvarelsene innenfor de ulike karakteruttrykkene. Intern sensor skal ta hensyn til ekstern sensors vurdering ved sensurering av alle eksamensoppgaver.

Teaching is organised as a combination of lectures, discussions and presentations by the candidates in which selected classic texts (books and/or articles), literature reviews and meta-analyses are discussed, and topical research presented.

The candidates shall submit analyses of syllabus and other texts. Participation is mandatory, and candidates are expected to attend all days of teaching. Only a minor absence from teaching may be accepted under certain circumstances and upon application. In the event of absences that are not approved, candidates will lose their right to have their papers assessed.

A paper of between 6 and 8 pages ( 2500-3500 words) will be delivered within 2 months of the completion of the course. The teachers responsible for the course will assess the paper. A pass is a precondition for being awarded the ECTS credits. If the paper is awarded a fail grade, the candidate can submit a revised essay once, by a specified deadline.

All examination support material is allowed as long as source reference and quotation technique requirements are applied. 

Pass-Fail

The essay will be graded by the course lecturers.

The target group for the course are candidates from the PhD programme in Social Science, business administration, innovation and governance.
