4 Page 4 (8) - learn transferable skills applicable to a wide variety of lab based, quantitative and qualitative methods. Core courses Students aiming to acquire a Magister degree may do so after year 1, where an independent project/dissertation (15 credits) will count as the Magister dissertation. The Master's degree qualification requires a total of at least 30 credits of project or dissertation/thesis work. Students are required to take 15 credits of advanced method studies (specialist path, see below) before undertaking a 30 credit specialist thesis. Teaching consists mainly of tutorials, seminars and exercises. Elective courses These courses are taught by the Department of philosophical and religious studies. For a description of available courses see the department's website Optional courses Students may read up to 30 credits of optional courses within the framework of the programme. These courses may be taken at either Umeå University or other universities, and can be used to tailor the student's education as to their interests or requirements. Work placement and internships may also be counted towards optional course points, but must be arranged by the students themselves. Degree structure The Masters degree programme is highly problem-solution oriented with an emphasis on the learning of transferable skills, through their application in environmental archaeology, that can be used in a professional or research career. The degree can be read in its entirety in English. In year 1 students follow four core courses (60 credits), including a project/dissertation (15 credits) that may be used as part of a Magister qualification. In year 2, students follow a 30 credit core course (independent work) and then select one of two paths that either allow them to go deeper into a particular set of methods (15 credits) and choose optional/elective courses (15 credits); or choose 30 credits of optional/elective courses. Students may choose to take an internship amounting to up to the respective limit of optional/elective courses (15 or 30 credits). The student is expected to be actively involved in the planning of and search for a suitable internship position.
