Written project

Course content

A written project can only be written on the master’s study programme when it replaces ECTS credits on the programme and can only replace ECTS credits that are not already allocated to courses. If the student has taken a course, it cannot be completed by a written project. Written projects may replace max. 30 ECTS credits.

The exam consists of producing an assignment on a problem formulation chosen by the student and approved by a supervisor. Students are responsible for finding their own supervisor. The project is registered in connection with registration for other exams and submitted during the associated exam period.

Supervision is available for this form of exam.
