Programme components

The master's programme involves two years of full-time studies. The programme is structured around core courses (45 credits) and elective courses (15 credits), which both provide a general introduction to theory and methodology and give the students the opportunity to qualify within particular topics. In addition the programme consists of a master's thesis (60 credits). The normal workload for a full-time student for one academic year is 60 credits.
