Introduction

No requirements over and above the admission requirements.

Required preliminary courses

Regular follow-up of the project work by a project supervisor. Students will write a report describing the project and what they have gained from participating in the project.

Projects are selected/distributed at the start of the semester.

Learning outcomes

The following work requirements are mandatory and must be approved in order to prepare for the exam:

  • A standard learning agreement must be entered into between the project provider / supervisor and the student(s), and this must be approved by the course coordinator before the project can start.
  • An oral mid-term presentation, individual or in groups (max 5 students), 10 minutes + 5 minutes Q&A.

The deadlines for submitting the project outline and minutes of the meetings will be presented in the teaching plan, which is made available at the beginning of the semester.

Teaching and learning methods

Portfolio assessment subject to the following requirements:

  • A project report, of 2,000 words +/-10%, describing how the assignment has been solved, and demonstrating that the students have a fundamental grasp of the processes and the methods that have been employed.
  • A ten-minute video presentation demonstrating the learning outcomes that the students have achieved during their work with the project.

The portfolio is assessed as a whole and given a single grade, but both the project report and the video presentation must be passed in order for the portfolio to receive a grade E or higher.

For group projects, all members of the group receive the same grade. Under exceptional circumstances, individual grades can be assigned at the discretion of the project supervisor(s) and Head of Studies.

The exam result can be appealed.
