Exam system Canvas

When artificial intelligence is used in assessments, the student must document this by completing and submitting the self-declaration form. If you submit text, calculations, etc. that are directly copied from an AI writing tool, this will be regarded as presenting the work of others as your own and therefore constitutes cheating.

Method of work

8 hours of project work per week. There are no ordinary lectures in this course; each student will receive independent supervision over a selected syllabus by the appointed supervisor.

Open for

PhD progamme in Chemistry and Biosciences. Master in Environmental Engineering and Biological Chemistry.

Course assessment

The faculty decides whether early dialogue will be held in all courses or in selected groups of courses. The aim is to collect student feedback for improvements during the semester. In addition, a digital course evaluation must be conducted at least every three years to gather students’ experiences.
