ACADEMIC CONTENT | |
Overall objective |
The project work is problem-oriented and must develop the student's skills in applying theories and methods within a defined academic topic. The project work involves a self-chosen problem in relation to one or more of the selected specializations. The project must give the student the opportunity to describe and reflect over independently performed work, in which complex issues are addressed. |
