MARAD4100 Computed Tomography (CT) Course description

The European Project Semester (EPS) is an international program consisting of 30ECTS - 20ECTS Project Work and 10ECTS Supporting Courses.

To qualify to sit for the final exam, students shall as a group task produce a podcast over a given part of the curriculum. Alternatively, If the student is unable to attend such a group, s/he must write an academic paper of 2000 words (+/-10 %) on a given topic. This will enable the student to engage with the course literature and critically reflect on a particular topic. Papers must be handed in digitally through OsloMet's Learning Management System and within the stipulated deadline. No individual supervision will be provided for this paper, but students will be able to work on their papers in course seminars.

The podcast/paper will be assessed as either "approved" or "not approved". Students who do not get the required pass, may revise their podcast or rewrite and resubmit their paper once within a given deadline. Students who due to illness or other documented reasons for legal absence fail to submit this coursework requirement with the set deadline, will be given a new submission deadline. In this case, the student must present the documents confirming his/her illness.

The program is mainly offered to third year engineering students, but students from other disciplines may apply.

The EPS is also an alternative to writing the regular final thesis for third year bachelor students at the Faculty of Technology, Art and Design.

Candidates must have a qualification equivalent to two years of relevant education at a higher education institution. Proficiency in English is required.

On completion of the EPS the student has the following learning outcomes defined as knowledge, skills, and general competence.

Knowledge

The student knows:

• Business and academic behaviour in different cultures and disciplines.
• Relevant processes and methods for innovation and development work.
• Relevant forms of communication for working in an international context.

Skills

The student can:

• Organize, contribute and take responsibility in learning processes.
• Apply skills and knowledge from their primary discipline in a multidisciplinary project.
• Communicate in English in business and academic settings.

General Competence

The student can:

• Cooperate in an international and multidisciplinary group.

• Reflect on and document learning and self-development.

The EPS semester is divided into two parts:

1. A multidisciplinary group project (20 ECTS) designed to develop students' initiative, project management skills, co-operation, communication skills, individual creativity and ability to apply their disciplinary knowledge in a broader context . Projects can be within the Faculty of Technology, Art and Design and/or in collaboration with external companies, partners and stakeholders.
2. Two Supporting Courses (Project Management and English and Academic Writing), which run throughout the semester, plus a series of guest lectures and workshops.

For more details, see course plans.

Eksamen gjennomføres i form av individuell semesteroppgave (4000 ord +/- 10%). Oppgaven tar utgangspunkt i en selvvalgt problemstilling som er relevant for studiets overordnede emner.

Ny/utsatt eksamen

• ved første ny og utsatt eksamen kan omarbeidet versjon av semesteroppgaven leveres. Ved senere forsøk må det utarbeides ny problemstilling og leveres ny semesteroppgave
• studentens rettigheter og plikter ved ny/utsatt eksamen framgår av forskrift om studier og eksamen ved OsloMet - storbyuniversitetet. Studenter er selv ansvarlige for å melde seg opp til eventuell ny/utsatt eksamen.

Upon successful completion of the course, the student should master these learning outcomes:

Knowledge

The student

• knows the main analytical approaches and key themes and terms in the study of media and development on a global scale.
• knows different perspectives on how media is connected to social change and development.

Skills

The student

• can reflect critically on various types of perspectives on the relationship between media and development.
• is able to build transferable analytical skills of media and development across the global South.

General competence

• knows how to link media and development to cross-cultural issues.
• is able to apply this knowledge in new academic contexts.

The forms of assessment used shall promote learning and document that the students¿ competence is adequate in relation to the applicable learning outcome.

A grading scale from A to E is used, where A denotes the highest grade, E denotes the lowest, and F denotes a fail. Grades are assigned according to the Assessment Criteria for Bachelor's Theses in Engineering set by the Norwegian Association for Higher Education Institutions.

Provisions governing examinations are laid down in the Act relating to Universities and University Colleges and the Regulations relating to Studies and Examinations at OsloMet - Oslo Metropolitan University. Please refer to OsloMet's website: www.oslomet.no

The purpose of the Quality Assurance System at OsloMet is to strengthen the student's learning outcome and development by increasing the quality throughout. OsloMet wants to cooperate with its students and their participation in the Quality Assurance System is crucial. Some of the overall goals of the Quality Assurance System are to ensure:

• the educational institution, including practical training, learning and study environment maintains a high standard
• relevance of the study programmes for the professional field
• continuous development and improvements in the quality of teaching and learning

Students will be required to complete an EPS Course Evaluation Form at the end of the semester.

• rådgivningsteorier og modeller
• utvikling av egne ferdigheter og holdninger i rådgivning og veiledning
