The dates in the study period below (in phones) or on the right (laptops/desktops) are only during which period it is possible to perform the research traineeship. You decide together with the supervisor during which weeks of the period the traineeship will be performed.

You can do KB8026 after this course if you want to do a new project or if you want to do the same project for a longer period. 7,5 ECTS equals about five weeks of full-time work.





The course is examined by the following:

  • A written log-book
  • An oral presentation
  • A written report

The examination is in English. If multiple research traineeship courses are performed after each other with the same project and supervisor all traineeship courses are examined at the same time at the end of the last one.
