Contents
The course consists of an individual experimental- or clinical study within the field of biomedical laboratory science. The research process encompasses planning and performance of an experimental- or clinical study, analysis, compilation and evaluation of the obtained results. The results and conclusions are presented as a written manuscript as well as in an oral presentation.
Expected learning outcomes
Skills and abilities After having passed the course the student should:
independently plan and perform laboratory or clinical analysis,
analyze and interpret obtained results,
make a compilation of results and present these,
write a summary of the manuscript
write a scientific manuscript according to given instructions,
make an oral presentation of scientific results.
Assessment and approach After having passed the course the student should:
have conducted an opposition of a scientific manuscript
be able to adopt supervision.
Required Knowledge
Admission to the course requires at least 90 Credits within the area of biomedical laboratory science or in another way have obtained equivalent knowledge.
Form of instruction
During the experimental studies the student will receive individual supervision at the laboratory where the studies are performed. To hand in two drafts to the teacher responsible for the course is mandatory. A teacher will give feedback on the drafts. Furthermore, the course include a meeting for the student group with the teacher responsible for the course.
Examination modes
Passing the course requires that the student pass the written- as well as the oral presentation of the performed study. A student who fails the practical part of course is offered one new opportunity to conduct a study. The student has a maximum of five opportunities to make changes to the manuscript in relation to the comments of the examiner, and two additional occasions for opposition or oral presentation. After two revisions of the manuscript by the examiner, the student can request a new examiner by the Program Council. The application should be sent to the Program Council of Biomedical Laboratory Science Program and is granted by the Program Council.
Other regulations
During clinical internship, requirements for professional approach, including clothing and hygiene, have to comply with regulations of the receiving clinical practice.
