The project module is from the 4th Semester of the Master of Problem Based Learning in Engineering and Science (MPBL) and can be followed as a single module. 

During the final master’s thesis, participants will be asked to independently expand their learning by problematizing contemporary educational challenges and their impacts on institutions, students, and staff communities. Participants are expected to use their understanding of PBL principles and experiences to design, implement, and evaluate potential solutions.

Throughout the module, you will develop a master’s thesis based on thorough and evidence-based problematization of prevailing teaching designs to (re)design, implement, and evaluate a PBL-based course or program to address a given educational challenge. The master’s thesis is supported through supervision and peer-learning groups.

Please note that the master’s thesis builds on knowledge obtained during semesters 1-3 in the MPBL, and the project modules from these semesters are a prerequisite to attend the Master’s thesis module.
