Agile Project Management for sustainable decommissioning Programme description

Internationalisation contributes to raising the quality of education and strengthens the academic community on the programme, at the same time as it prepares the students to become global citizens. The increasing globalisation of the labour market also makes international professional experience and knowledge of languages and cultures more and more important. Internationalisation takes place both through activities on campus in Norway and through mobility to institutions abroad.

Focus on multicultural and global issues in the programme contributes to increased understanding and improves the students' ability to cope with diversity professionally in a multicultural society. International course literature in English also provides an opportunity for the students to become familiar with terminology and international research. The programme participates in several international networks related to research cooperation and the education of dental technicians. In some courses, the students can attend lectures given by foreign guest speakers. The Dental Technology Programme at OsloMet has cooperation agreements with several universities and university colleges in and outside Europe.

International semester/incoming exchanges

The programme can receive students of dental technology who have been admitted to foreign institutions of higher education. Students who are admitted to the programme can be offered to take parts of the programme in the course TAB2300 Prosthodontics 3 – Fixed Prosthodontics in the fourth semester. The course material will be available digitally in English, and is particularly adapted to international students. Furthermore, incoming students can choose one or more adapted courses in English that in total make up one semester, TANNPRAINN1A External Practical Training in Fixed Prosthetics, TAB1060 Evidence-Based Practice, TAB3900 Bachelor Thesis, and the course TAB1070 Technology and Society, which can be taken alongside other students at OsloMet.

Exchanges

Students can normally complete up to three to five months of the programme abroad. Student exchanges generally take place in the fifth and sixth semester, in connection with the completion of the course TABPRA 1A, TABPRA 1B or TAB3900 in the sixth semester.

The students who participate in the course Fixed Prosthodontics at OsloMet can choose whether they want to write the theoretical assignments in English or Norwegian. Students who go on exchanges must write their theses in English if the exchange is in a country outside Scandinavia. The bachelor's thesis must be written in English in cases where the student is on an exchange abroad during the whole or parts of the period.
