• demonstrate the ability to search for, collect and integrate knowledge
• demonstrate the ability to identify, analyse, assess and handle complex phenomena, issues and situations
• demonstrate the ability to plan and carry out high-quality tasks within given time frames
• demonstrate the ability to develop and evaluate products, processes, systems, methods or technical solutions
• demonstrate the ability to orally and in writing account for and discuss their conclusions
• demonstrate the ability to exercise judgement considering relevant scientific, social and ethical aspects
• demonstrate the skills required to participate in research and development work or to independently work in other advanced contexts

Specific Prerequisites

To be admitted to the course, the student is required to have completed at least 240 ECTS credits in the "Civilingenjör och Lärare" degree programme.
