The contents of the course are described in great detail in the document "Plan for practical training¿ found in the course room on Canvas.

 

 

Teaching and learning methods

The practical teaching is comprised of supervising and instruction in hospital laboratories and includes reporting and presenting bio-engineering related exercises. The exercises require mandatory submission of reports.

 

Examination requirements

Laboratory reports and practice courses must receive approval before students are allowed to take the examination.

Examinations

The practice courses are assessed with Pass/Fail grades. Students will receive written notification if there is any question regarding the approval of their exercises.

 

Student evaluation

The study programme manager, in consultation with the student representative, decides the method of evaluation and whether the courses will have a midterm- or end of term evaluation, see also the Quality System, section 4.1. Information about evaluation method for the course will be posted on Canvas.
