Teaching and assessment
The program is a 2 years, 120 credits, full-time study at the Department of Technology and Safety.
The study program uses a variety of teaching methods, and includes lectures, projects, student presentations, teamwork and mandatory assignments. These methods will help students to take an active role in the learning process by writing tasks and project reports in order to achieve the total learning outcome of the study program. It is emphasized that learning activities will contribute to professional development of students and their skills for collaboration, communication and practical problem solving through working in groups. The study program provides knowledge about scientific theories and methods, and the project paper and master thesis are designed for individual research work.
Lectures are organized either as blocks or regularly, on a weekly basis. In some courses, seminars may be arranged. Some courses may include compulsory lectures, exercises, excursion and approval of exercises/fieldwork or semester reports. This will be stated in the course descriptions.
Assessment methods will vary between written exam, home exam, group assignments, project submission and oral exam. In some cases, the assessment will be a combination of different assessment methods. For a more detailed description of the assessment forms, see subject descriptions.
