Working on publications, submissions to journals, handling comments from referees, as well as working on the thesis. Taking part in peer review of scientific work, e.g. giving feedback on colleagues manuscripts, and attending seminars where other PhD students and researchers ideas and results are discussed. MEANS OF ACHIEVING GENERAL COMPETENCE Taking a course on research ethics with a recommended volume of at least 5 credits. Supervision and own research. Working on publications and on the thesis. The trial lecture. The trial lecture requires familiarisation with a specified topic quickly, time management, searching for/ selecting/ evaluating/ processing information, and giving an oral presentation of this topic. Presenting own research findings at national and international scientific conferences. Giving lectures to students and/or being a mentor in his/her own area of competence. EVALUATION OF LEARNING OUTCOMES The objectives and the relevant learning outcomes are evaluated in the final instance through the trial lecture and public defence of the doctoral thesis. The required coursework is evaluated using various forms of evaluation such as oral or written examinations, submitting assignments or a term paper. The content of the doctoral work and the required coursework must be approved by IMT's research committee, and the committee monitors progress by means of the annual progress reports and the compulsory seminars (introductory, midway and final seminars). Other input to learning outcomes does not need to be evaluated separately, but the principal supervisor is responsible for ensuring that the objectives are met through relevant measures, subject-related discussions and steps towards dissemination within the time frame of the doctoral degree work. The degree of philosophiae doctor (PhD) is awarded on the basis of: Approved completion of the required coursework An approved doctoral thesis An approved trial lecture on a specified topic An approved public defence of the doctoral thesis (disputation) See section 12. ACADEMIC CONTENT AND STRUCTURE The Department of Mathematical Sciences and Technology has a broad subject portfolio within sciences and technology which includes: Natural sciences o Physics o Applied Informatics o Applied Mathematics Technology o Structural engineering, building technology and Architecture Mechanical and Process Engineering o Water and Environmental Technology o Geomatics
5 5 Educational sciences o Science and Mathematics Education o Pedagogics An educational and research plan is drawn up together with the candidate and the principal supervisor / research group at the start of the programme of study. It is finalised during the first year partly by means of the compulsory introductory seminar. The required coursework totals 30 credits (though the candidate can take more on a voluntary basis) to ensure that the candidate has adequate time for his/her own research, which is the most important part of a PhD programme in science and technology. Five of these credits must be in research ethics. Very many different sub-areas within the mathematical sciences and technology may be relevant for the PhD education. IMT deems it vital to provide adequate research education that is as closely linked to the individual s research area as possible. It is therefore customary to offer specially adapted courses, often including a separate study component with designated key support literature adapted to the candidate s subject area. The course is assessed and quality assured by IMT s research committee, and an external examiner is a requirement. In addition, more extensive PhD courses are held with several students participating in each course. In order to carry out their own research activity, students must also familiarise themselves with extensive additional literature, although an evaluation of this is not a prerequisite. The plan must be subject-specific and must describe the programme s content and structure. It must also describe the progress and coherence in the study plan and how this will lead to the student developing competence and achieving the learning outcomes over time. INTERNATIONAL PERSPECTIVE All relevant research groups at IMT incorporating PhD candidates have a strong network of international researchers. It is therefore natural to draw on this also in connection with the PhD programme. Students are encouraged to participate in international conferences and to build networks that they can benefit from later. Often part of the compulsory courses and of the candidate s own research activity takes place in other countries. RESEARCH COMMUNITY LINKED TO THE PROGRAMME OF STUDY The PhD students' principal supervisors will be appointed from among the department s permanent academic staff (researchers, associate professors and professors) who have the necessary research and supervisory experience. Other researchers with relevant competence can be appointed as co-supervisors, also from other national and international institutions. RESEARCH WORK IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROGRAMME OF STUDY The PhD education includes an independent scientific work that meets international standards and is of high academic quality in terms of the formulation of research questions, the specification of concepts, the methodological, theoretical and empirical basis, documentation, the use of literature and the form of presentation. The research work shall contribute to the development of new knowledge in the field, and must be of such quality as to qualify for publication as part of the scientific literature in the field. SUPPORT FUNCTIONS AND INFRASTRUCTURE IMT offers a number of key facilities for conducting research, including laboratories (electronics lab, hydraulics lab, purification lab for water and waste water, a special workshop for construction, drawing office, robots and sensors, etc). In addition, there is a pilot plant for most purification processes related to water and waste water technologies. The majority of laboratories and the workshop are staffed by technical personnel who have competence in the use of the special machines.
6 6 EXCHANGES During the planning of the PhD programme, provision is made for collaboration and exchange with other research institutions, preferably international. Including this in the plan guarantees its implementation. The usual practice is to form a supervisory team of two to three supervisors together with the principal supervisor at the department. It is normal therefore to include a co-supervisor from the exchange institution in the group. IMT s research communities demonstrate a high degree of national and international collaboration. The research communities in educational sciences at IMT engage in collaboration nationally (national research schools in education National Graduate School in Education (NATED) and the Norwegian National Graduate School in Teacher Education (NAFOL)) as well as internationally. PhD students are brought into such networks and collaboration along the same lines as other research staff. ACCESSIBILITY General information about universal design and special arrangements at NMBU: WORDING OF THE DIPLOMA The PhD programme in Science and Technology is based at NMBU s Department of Mathematical Sciences and Technology. The Department has a broad academic portfolio and extensive research activity in the natural sciences (physics, applied informatics and mathematics), technology (Structural engineering, building technology and architecture, mechanical and process engineering, water and environmental technology, and geomatics) as well as educational sciences (science and mathematics education, pedagogics).
