Bachelor and Master
Refer to the department's website regarding
education where you can find links to relevant curricula, course descriptions, project proposals, etc.
At the Staff Portal you find forms (blanketter) for contracts and evaluations etc.
Bachelor and Master Projects
The department has prepared guidelines for Bachelor and Master Projects (Danish) at the department.
A BSc project is 9 weeks from start to delivery of thesis. Please plan it so that this period is not interrupted for the student (e.g. by vacation or other work) since this will give the student less time for working on BSc project (you can not add time in the other end).
You can only include what totally amounts to 2 weeks of experimental work in a BSc project. Any kind of practical work is considered "experimental", not just the work in the laboratory.
Agreements regarding Bachelor and Master Projects
Bachelor-/Master contracts should be prepared and handed in to the education committee's secretary who is required to store (the original) at LIFE, and a copy is to be sent to the relevant Section Secretary. The Education Secretary contacts students and supervisors three weeks before the due delivery date for Bachelor projects and three months before submission of Master Theses. At this point it must be considered whether to seek an exemption or whether the deadline can be met. At the department, the authorization to process waiver applications is delegated by the Head of Department to the chairman of the Education Committee.
Planning of seminars, notices, examinations, etc.
Contact the Section Secretary if you need help planning an exam, preparing notices for the website, contacting examiners etc.
Examiners
If you need to use an external examiner for an exam, you will find an appropriate examiner in the examiner corps. If it is not possible to find a suitable candidate among the official examiners, contact the Section secretary with respect to ad hoc capacities. To appoint an ad hoc examiner you need a written justification, copy of the relevant person's CV and publication list.
