The study is normally taken as a full-time study of two years, spread over four semesters or as a part-time study over four years, spread over eight semesters. Because working life in the journalism, non-fiction and media and communication industries is characterized by a large degree of interdisciplinarity and constant changes in which competencies and skills are in demand, the study is structured so that students have great freedom to a) choose subjects across the three fields of study: journalism, media and communication and non-fiction, and b) to choose subjects in other master's programs at higher education institutions in Norway or internationally. For the same reason, the master's theses are 60 credits, which gives students a lot of flexibility and freedom of choice in what they want to immerse themselves in.

The master's program consists of two compulsory courses of 10 credits that are common to all fields of study. The field of study non-fiction also has one compulsory course of 10 credits, because it to a lesser extent than the other two is based on a professional community created through joint bachelor education. All other courses are optional and can be chosen across the fields of study, but a student must 1) take a minimum of 10 credits within the field of study in addition to the master's thesis, which amounts to 60 credits and 2) take at least one course (10 credits) taught in English. Some courses have prerequisites, which are stated in the course plans.

Studiet er et deltidsstudium som består av samlinger (på campus og /eller digitalt), med introduksjon av faglige temaer, erfaringsdeling, og litteraturstudier. Det forutsetter at deltakerne er aktive og bidrar med erfaringsdeling og refleksjoner i læringsfellesskapet.

Det legges vekt på at innhold og arbeidsformer skal være praksisnære og relevante for arbeid med realkompetanse. Studieopplegget inkludert arbeidskravene skal bidra til forståelse for rolle og ansvar, egenvurdering og refleksjon rundt egen praksis samt profesjonalisering av arbeidet med alle faser i realkompetansevurdering.

Det er oppgitt obligatorisk pensum knyttet til emnet. I tillegg skal studentene, i samråd med faglærer, velge 200 sider selvvalgt pensum, se eget forslag til selvvalgt litteratur.

Students can apply for an exchange one semester (up to 30 credits). Exchange is possible primarily in the 2nd semester for full-time study, but exchange in the 3rd semester will also be possible, if the student chooses to postpone courses for this semester. The study is based on a large degree of freedom of choice, and the two compulsory courses are in the 1st semester (for full-time study).

To meet the requirement of a minimum of 10 credits in the fields of study in addition to the master's thesis (60 credits), the student can, for example, take one course in the field of study in the 1st semester in addition to the two compulsory courses, and then travel on exchange and take 30 credits. other educational institution in the 2nd semester.

The study program proposes that the students are to a large extent responsible for their own learning development towards the work on the master's thesis. The relevance of exchange stays for the master's thesis will therefore be decisive in the assessment of applications for exchange.The Department of Journalism and Media Studies has agreements within the Erasmus program and the Nordplus program, and students can also apply via OsloMet - the metropolitan university's agreements outside Europe.International perspectives are also safeguarded by the fact that several of the learning outcome descriptions at both program and course level are oriented towards international conditions, and by offering a number of courses in English. Both Norwegian and foreign students participate in these courses, and the students use experiences from their respective home countries in the pedagogical program.

FeedbackThe students receive written and/or verbal feedback from the lecturer and/or fellow students on their written assignments based on the criteria of relevance, theoretical knowledge, in-depth study, ethical reflection, independence and how the assignment is presented.

ApprovalRequired coursework is assessed as approved/not approved. Required coursework that is not approved must be improved before re-submission. If the work is not approved on re-submission, the student cannot take the ordinary exam. Students are entitled to a third attempt before the resit/rescheduled exam. If the third attempt at a coursework requirement is not approved, the student cannot take the resit/rescheduled exam and will have to wait until the ordinary exam for the following year. The student will then be entitled to three new attempts with the new class.
