SYBAS3900 Bachelor's Thesis Course description

Eksamen vurderes av intern og ekstern sensor.

Tolkefaget er et ferdighetsfag. Emnet inneholder derfor teoretiske og praktiske disipliner, og det forbereder studenten på tolkeoppgaver i offentlig sektor. Emnet har både kunnskaps- og ferdighetsmål.

• Studenten skal øke sin forståelse for de språklige valg tolken står overfor i tolkeprosessen.
• Studenten skal forbedre sine tolkeferdigheter med særlig hensyn til kommunikative og retoriske strategier.

Emnet inneholder følgende tre temaer:

• Kommunikativ kompetanse i tolking.
• Retorikkens plass i tolking.
• Tekstanalyse.

Lectures, seminars, supervision and self-study.

The following coursework must have been approved in order for a student to be permitted to take the exam:

• Project description for the bachelor's thesis
• Completed supervision (three compulsory hours of the four hours offered)

If the deadlines are not met, students may be obliged to wait until the next academic year to submit their bachelor's thesis.

Bachelor's thesis in the form of a literature study. The bachelor's thesis is normally written in pairs of students.

Scope: 10,000 words (+/- 20%). The supervisor offers two seminars. Each group is offered one hour of supervision four times, three of which are compulsory.

For more information, see the provisions for the bachelor's thesis SYBA/SYBAS 3900 for the 2018 year group.

Resit exam: If students are forced to interrupt their writing period before submission or are awarded a grade F, they can submit a reworked version for assessment once in the same group or individually. The resit will normally be scheduled for the subsequent semester.

1) If the students keep the same research question as they used for the ordinary exam, they do not have to redo the required coursework project description.

2) If the students change their research question, the project description must be re-approved.

In both cases, students are allocated four more hours' supervision, three of which must be used in order for the student to be allowed to submit the bachelor's thesis for assessment.

All aids are permitted, as long as the rules for source referencing are complied with.

Grade scale A-F.

One internal and one external examiner.

SKOMP3900, SYBA3900, and SYBAS3900 overlap 100%.
