Programme structure

The master programme is a two year programme, consisting of a thesis and theoretical course work. The thesis is an independent scientific work, carried out under supervision.

You can choose between a long thesis (60 credits thesis, 60 credits course work) a short thesis (30 credits thesis, 90 credits course work).

All 4000- and 5000-courses are considered master level courses. Choice of thesis and curriculum is made in accordance to the programme option of your choice and together with your supervisor. At least 30 credits must be from the program structure.

The programme has three programme options
