Geochemistry, Degree Project

The individual project for the Candidate exam aims to give insight and experience in actual scientific methods in the subject of geochemistry.


Planning, analyses and interpretations of the scientific task form a central part. Literature search, scientific report writing and oral presentations of the research results in seminars will be trained.

The course provides knowledge and experience both for further academic studies and for employment in industry and the public sector.

The course is given each term and can be started and ended any time during the term.

Together with the supervisor/s, the student establishes a project description which needs to be approved by the responsible professor in Geochemistry.




Assessment

Examination includes a written report and oral presentation.
