Students are required to do a two-month period of fieldwork in their home country in association with their Master thesis. Norwegian students are encouraged to do their fieldwork in developing countries or in Eastern Europe. Students are free to choose the topic of their thesis, provided that adequate supervision can be given in that subject. It is considered advantageous that the dissertation concerns a topic related to the student?s home country, or with direct application there. The maintenance of links with professional environments in the home country is therefore emphasised. A typical thesis will be a ?desk-top? assignment consisting of e.g. a literature survey or review, a policy document, a problem-oriented model based on secondary data, or any other theme requiring a limited amount of field or experimental work. | Form of teaching
