procedure
The synopsis serves as basis for the 30 minutes
individual, oral exam where the student starts out by
giving a brief presentation. The examiners can ask questions based
on the entire curriculum. The 30 minutes include assessment time.
The exam is conducted in the language that is to be assessed and
two grades will be given; one for language and one for content. An
internal examiner will assist at the exam. The purpose of the exam
is to test:
a. The student’s ability to communicate fluently with a varied
vocabulary and without errors that impede communication.
b. The student’s insight in the societal and cultural context which
he/she has been part of and the ability to reflect theoretically
upon it. The student will receive two grades according to the 7-point
grading scale; one grade for the communicative skills and one grade
for the content. Both grades are based solely on the oral
presentation and not on the
synopsis. |
|
Course content and structure |
The student is eligible for 4 hours of supervision by an area
studies advisor. The purpose of the supervision is to ensure that
synopsis and curriculum relate to relevant theoretical and
empirical problems within the chosen study area. The Synopsis must
be based on a 300 pages curriculum in French, German, Spanish,
Japanese or Chinese. The curriculum must be agreed upon with the
supervisor, and as proof of that the supervisor must sign a
curriculum list form for internships at MSc BLC. The synopsis must
be written in the relevant language.
