Det vises til forskrift om opptak til studier ved OsloMet – storbyuniversitetet.

Videreutdanningen består av to obligatoriske emner og gjennomføres på deltid over to semestre. Utdanningen er i hovedsak nettbasert, men med en samling på campus av to dagers varighet hvert semester (oppstartseminar i første semester og simuleringsøvelsen i andre semester). Det forventes en arbeidsinnsats på ca. 18 timer pr. uke. Gjennomført studium gir 30 studiepoeng.

Emnet VMNT6000 Medisinsk nødmeldetjeneste og den akuttmedisinske kjeden (10 stp.) gjennomføres i høstsemesteret, og emnet VMNT6200 Mottak av medisinske nødmeldinger (20 stp.) gjennomføres i vårsemesteret.

Opptakskrav er godkjent lærerutdanning innrettet for undervisning i skolen. Søkere med bestått førskole- eller barnehagelærerutdanning må i tillegg dokumentere PAPS 1+2 eller GLSM 60 studiepoeng. I tillegg kreves minst to års yrkeserfaring som lærer.

Studenter som innvilges studieplass, må være i arbeid som lærer eller ha kontakt med en skole der det er mulig å ta del i undervisning.

Søkere rangeres etter karakterpoeng fra lærerutdanningen. Søkere som har fått innvilget stipend og/eller vikarmidler fra Utdanningsdirektoratet (Udir), får 5 tilleggspoeng.

Arbeidskrav er alle former for arbeider, prøving og obligatorisk tilstedeværelse som settes som vilkår for å fremstille seg til vurdering/eksamen og/eller gjennomføre praksisstudier. Arbeidskrav gis vurdering godkjent/ikke godkjent. Arbeidskravene tilknyttet hvert emne fremgår i den enkelte emneplan. Hensikten med arbeidskrav er å:

• bidra til at studenten oppnår læringsutbyttene i emnene
• fremme progresjon og faglig utvikling i utdanningen
• stimulere til å oppsøke og tilegne seg ny kunnskap
• legge til rette for samhandling og kommunikasjon om faglige spørsmål

Obligatorisk tilstedeværelse

Det er obligatorisk tilstedeværelse innenfor områder som er vesentlige for videreutdanningen, og hvor studenten ikke kan tilegne seg kunnskap og ferdigheter gjennom selvstudier alene. Dette medfører at det er obligatorisk tilstedeværelse på følgende aktiviteter:

• Oppstartsseminaret
• Webseminar
• Observasjonspraksis
• Simuleringsøvelsen

Det kan også være krav om obligatorisk tilstedeværelse i andre aktiviteter. Det er studentens ansvar å påse at krav om tilstedeværelse oppfylles innen de fristene som er angitt. Dersom studenten overskrider fraværsgrensen, vil emneansvarlig vurdere om det er mulig å kompensere for fravær gjennom alternative krav, for eksempel skriftlige individuelle oppgaver. Dersom fraværet ikke kan kompenseres, må studenten følge neste kull. Muligheten for kompensasjon avhenger av hvor stort fraværet har vært og hvilke aktiviteter studenten ikke har deltatt på.

Skriftlige arbeider

Emnene har obligatoriske skriftlige oppgaver og refleksjonsnotater som arbeidskrav. Tilbakemelding forutsetter at det skriftlige arbeidet er levert til fastsatt tid. Skriftlige arbeider som ikke blir godkjent, må omarbeides før ny innlevering. Dersom annen gangs innlevering ikke godkjennes, kan ikke studenten fremstille seg til ordinær eksamen/vurdering.

Studenten har rett til et tredje forsøk før ny/utsatt eksamen. Dersom tredje gangs innlevering ikke godkjennes må studenten gjennomføre emnet med neste kull. Nærmere bestemmelser om krav til skriftlige arbeider, frister etc. fremgår av emneplanen for det enkelte emne.

The master’s programme is designed to be comprehensive, and the academic content and educational tools are interlinked, showing a clear context between learning outcome descriptions, learning activities and forms of assessment.

The Master’s Degree Programme in Health Sciences has three or four compulsory common courses, depending on the chosen specialisation. In addition to these, there are at least two compulsory specialisation courses for each specific specialisation, and a master’s thesis worth either 30 or 50 ECTS credits, depending on the specialisation. The students can also choose one or more elective courses depending on their chosen specialisation. This does not apply to the specialisations cancer nursing, public health nursing, and mental health and addictionas they only have compulsory courses in their programme structures.

The courses in the programme description build to some extent on each other to ensure progress, with increasing requirements for knowledge and understanding within each specialisation. The courses are mainly taken over the course of the semester, with start-up at the start of the semester and examinations towards the end. The exceptions are certain compulsory specialisation courses that include external supervised practical training.

The academic year is 40 weeks long, and the expected workload for a full-time student is 40 hours per week. This includes scheduled activities, students’ own study activity and examinations. The course descriptions provide more details about learning outcomes, work methods, coursework requirements and examinations.

Content of compulsory common courses

The programme includes a compulsory common course MAVIT4100 Quality Improvement and Implementation of Evidence-based Practice, 10 ECTS credits. The purpose of this course is to enable students to actively contribute to promoting safe and high-quality health and care services. By health and care services is meant both public and approved private services, as well as health promoting work in the public and private sectors. The course introduces students to the organisation and management of health and care services. It also gives students experience of interprofessional quality improvement cooperation. Through the course, the students will learn about different quality improvement models and the interaction between user knowledge, experience-based knowledge and research-based knowledge in clinical decision-making processes.

There are also three common courses in the theory of science and research methods: MAVIT4050 Theory of Science and Research Methods, 10 ECTS credits, MAVIT4060 Qualitative and Quantitative Research Methods, 10 ECTS credits and MAVIT4070/MAEMP4070 Research Design and Project Description, 10 ECTS credits. These courses aim to help the student to read, understand and critically assess research literature, to critically assess various sources of knowledge that form part of clinical decision-making processes, to acquire in-depth knowledge of qualitative and quantitative research methods, and lead up to the development of a project description for their master’s thesis.

In the first course, MAVIT4050, the students are introduced to theory of science and research methods and research ethics.

The second course, MAVIT4060, provides students with a deeper understanding of qualitative and quantitative research methods. These two courses are compulsory for all students taking the programme.

The third course, MAVIT4070/MAEMP4070, is compulsory for students on most specialisations. The students will work more thoroughly with their chosen method and develop a project description for their master’s thesis. This is to ensure that the students get to grips with work on their master’s thesis at an early stage.

Master’s thesis – 30 and 50 ECTS credits

The master’s thesis in the programme is worth 50 ECTS credits (MAVIT5900/MAEMP5900) or 30 ECTS credits (MAVIT5910/MAVITD5910), respectively. Whether the students are able to choose the scope of their master’s thesis depends on the specialisation they have been admitted to. Normally students will develop a project description as part of the course MAVIT4070/MAEMP4070 Research Design and Project Description, 10 ECTS credits. The project description is developed with the support of the lecturer, who quality assures the project with respect to scope and degree of difficulty.

The same requirements apply to scientific and research-related work regardless of the length of the thesis. Students can choose to write the master’s thesis individually or in pairs. Students can also apply to write the master’s thesis with students from other specialisations, provided that the scope of the master’s thesis is the same. On application, interdisciplinary innovation projects can be written in groups of up to four students. Students are encouraged to contact potential supervisors about possible project ideas.

Elective courses

In the course of the master’s programme, the students can choose one or more elective courses depending on their chosen specialisation. This does not apply to the specialisations cancer nursing, public health nursing and mental health and addiction as they only have compulsory courses in their programme structures. Which elective courses that are available will vary. These elective courses cover a broad area of the health sciences. Students must apply for a place on elective courses no later than the semester before, subject to specific deadlines. More information about the elective courses can be found here https://student.oslomet.no/valgemner-master-helsevitenskap

Some courses may have separate progress requirements; see the individual course descriptions.

Arbeidskrav

Emnene omfatter arbeidskrav og undervisning med krav om deltakelse.

Arbeidskrav skal være levert/utført innen fastsatt(e) frist(er). Gyldig fravær dokumentert med for eksempel sykemelding, gir ikke fritak for å innfri arbeidskrav. Studenter som på grunn av sykdom eller annen dokumentert gyldig årsak ikke leverer arbeidskrav innen fristen, kan få forlenget frist. Ny frist for å innfri arbeidskrav avtales i hvert enkelt tilfelle med den aktuelle læreren.

Arbeidskrav vurderes til ”Godkjent” eller ”Ikke godkjent”. Studenter som leverer arbeidskrav innen fristen, men som får vurderingen ”Ikke godkjent”, har anledning til én ny innlevering. Studenten må da selv avtale ny innlevering av det aktuelle arbeidskravet med faglærer. Godkjente arbeidskrav er en forutsetning for å få avlegge eksamen.

Nærmere informasjon om arbeidskrav finnes i den enkelte emneplan.

Faglig aktivitet med krav om deltakelse

En vesentlig del av læringen er knyttet til utvikling av praktisk veiledningskompetanse og erfaringsdeling. Dette kan ikke tilegnes bare ved selvstudium, men må opparbeides gjennom reell dialog med medstudenter og lærere, og ved tilstedeværelse i undervisningen. Det er derfor krav om obligatorisk deltakelse på alle samlinger samt i basisgruppearbeid mellom samlingene. Fravær utover 20% kan unntaksvis kompenseres etter avtale med emneansvarlig. Gyldig fravær dokumentert med for eksempel sykemelding, gir ikke fritak for kravet om deltakelse.

Different forms of assessment are used on the programme that are adapted to the learning outcomes of the various courses. The forms of assessment used are intended to support learning and document the students’ level of competence in relation to the expected learning outcomes. In general, the following forms of assessment are used in the programme:

Supervised individual examination

Taken at the university’s examination premises over a set number of hours.

Home examination

Taken over a set period of time at the end of the course, normally with a set question/assignment text unless otherwise stated in the course description.

Project examination

Taken over the whole or large parts of the course, normally with a topic decided by the students themselves unless otherwise stated in the course description.

Oral examination

Can take place individually or in groups. It can either be an independent form of assessment or used to adjust the grade awarded for another examination.

Practical examination

The assessment of specific practical skills either at the university or in the field of practice.

Assessment of practical training

Supervised practical training, assessed in accordance with the Regulations relating to Studies and Examinationinations at OsloMet – Oslo Metropolitan University Chapter 8.

The assessment of examinations and practical training is carried out in accordance with the applicable rules set out in the Act relating to Universities and University Colleges, the Regulations relating to Studies and Examinationinations at OsloMet and the Guidelines for Appointment and Use of examiners at OsloMet.

The forms of assessment and criteria are described in each course description. All examinations taken and the title of the master’s thesis will be stated on the diploma.

Examinations

All courses conclude with an examination. The assessment is based on the learning outcomes for the course, and the degree to which the student has achieved the stipulated learning outcomes is assessed. In theoretical courses, the grades used are pass/fail or letter grades from A to F, with A being the highest grade and E the poorest pass grade. The grade F means that the student has failed the examination. The grades pass/fail are used for the assessment of practical training.

Resit and rescheduled examinations are carried out in the same manner as the ordinary examination unless otherwise specified in the course description. In special cases, resit and rescheduled examinations in courses with group examinations may be held as individual examinations.

For examinations where a percentage of the examination papers are selected for assessment by an external examiner, the external examiner's assessment should benefit all the students.

The grade awarded for a written examination can be appealed, cf. Section 11-10 of the Act relating to Universities and University Colleges and the Regulations relating to Studies and Examinations at OsloMet. It is not possible to appeal the grades awarded for oral and practical examinations. In connection with group examinations, the result of an appeal will only have consequences for the candidate(s) who submitted the appeal. The other students will keep their original grade.

External programme supervisor

An external programme supervisor scheme is in place for the programme as required by the Guidelines for Appointment and Use of Examiners at OsloMet. The external supervisor will write an annual report on their work that will be included in the faculty’s area of the university’s quality assurance system.

Suitability assessment

The suitability assessment is a continuous overall assessment that takes place throughout the study programme. A student must be suitable for professional practice in order to receive diploma/certificate for the study programme.

If it appears that a student may pose a potential danger to the lives, physical and mental health, rights or safety of patients, clients and users during practical training or in future professional practice, it should be asked whether the student is suitable for the profession. University staff, personnel in practical training establishment, as well as students can submit a notification of doubt. The students concerned should be informed as soon as possible if such a notification of doubt has been sent. They should receive guidance and advice on how they can improve or be advised to withdraw from the programme.
