Students who are admitted to study programmes at UiO must each semester register which courses and exams they wish to sign up for in Studentweb.

This course is for students admitted to Linguistics (master) and Multilingualism (master). Students enrolled in other Master's Degree Programmes can, on application, be admitted to the course if this is cleared by their own study programme.

If you are not already enrolled as a student at UiO, please see our information about admission requirements and procedures.

The course consists of 28 hours of teaching, divided into 14 double sessions spread throughout the semester.

A mandatory qualification assignment will be given during the semester. The dates for distribution and submission (via Canvas) will be announced at the beginning of the semester.

The assignment must be approved by the teacher before the student is eligible to take the final exam.

Approved mandatory activities remain valid for the next two times the course is offered.

A student who has completed compulsory instruction and coursework and has had these approved, is not entitled to repeat that instruction and coursework. A student who has been admitted to a course, but who has not completed compulsory instruction and coursework or had these approved, is entitled to repeat that instruction and coursework, depending on available capacity.
