Papers and Assignments

Final Project

After completing all modules, you need to do a final project. In this project you apply the theory dealt with in the modules to your own work situation, or another relevant context, while integrating all topics. This thesis forms the basis for the final examination that marks the end of the programme before the students receive their diplomas on graduation day.
