In order to be permitted to take the exam, the following must have been approved:;

• a minimum of 80 per cent attendance in scheduled group work
• completed blood sample collection course
• completed e-learning course in waste management

Work and teaching methods include lectures, seminars, peer assessment and bachelor's thesis in groups.

Projects are normally carried out in groups of 3-4 students. The groups will have an academic supervisor when working on the thesis. In addition, the groups will be offered writing supervision at the university of up to eight hours. The writing supervision is to help students to structure their thesis. The students will also assess each other’s texts in the work with the bachelor’s thesis.

Students meet for seminars during the period they are working on the bachelor's thesis. There will be a start-up seminar and differently themed seminars relevant for the completion of the bachelor’s thesis. At the end of the period, the students will meet to present their theses to each other.

Detailed guidelines for the bachelor’s thesis will be published in the learning platform.

The course consists of the following subject areas, specified below as the number of credits:

External practical training at a laboratory, 10 credits

All exam papers are assessed by two examiners. A minimum of fifty per cent of the exam papers will be assessed by an external examiner. The external examiner’s assessment shall benefit all students.
