Finishing your master's studies

At the end of your master program, you submit your thesis and have a final exam consisting of a presentation and an oral assessment.

Preparation for the master's exam

Before you can register for the master's exam the following must be done:

  • You have to pay the semester fee and be registered for the current semester
  • The Study plan agreement has to be delivered and approved by supervisor and the Student Administration 
  • Theoretical curriculum should by general rule be completed and passed in the semester prior to the semester in which you finish your master's thesis.

Submitting the thesis

Your thesis must be submitted in two separate ways before the deadline: Upload the thesis in StudentWeb and in Inspera.

If you are registered correctly in Studentweb, you will receive a description by email before your deadline. It is your responsibility to make sure your registrations are in order, and to let us know if you notice a mistake.

Master presentations

The master presentations will be held physically in the Ole-Johan Dahls hus this Spring. There will be a public presentation of a minimum of 30 minutes, where the student presents following subjects regarding their thesis:

  • The topic in question
  • The subject of the thesis
  • Method and theory
  • Results/conclusions
  • A discussion of the subject compared to prior research

The supervisor will participate at the public hearing in addition to an external- and a local examine. They will either participate through personal appearance or through video-/phone conference.

After the presentation there will be an oral examination/conversation between the candidate, the examiners and the supervisor.

The presentation could, combined with the following examination, adjust the final grade of the thesis. The grade given will not be announced until the presentation is completed.

Time and place for the presentations will be set in cooperation with the supervisor, the examiners and the administration. Time and place will be announced by the Department of Informatics, and will be open to an audience.
