Hours of supervision in connection with the master's thesis
The extent of the supervision (measured in work hours) to which the student is entitled to in connection with work on the master’s thesis at the Faculty of Humanities (HF) depends on the scope of the master’s thesis measured in credits. In addition, the Composition option in the master’s programme in Musicology has its own standard hours:
Master’s thesis | Total hours | Direct supervision time |
52.5/60 credits | 60 hours | 20 hours |
30/45 credits | 40 hours | 13.5 hours |
Musicology, Composition programme option | 150 hours | 60 hours |
This standardization and weighting applies regardless of whether completion is expected to take longer than the nominal length of study. The hours worked include both direct conference/supervision time with the student and preparatory and follow-up time for the supervisor. The time calculated for direct supervision and preparatory/follow-up time is weighted in the ratio 1:3; that is, direct supervision time amounts to a total of 1/3 of the total hours worked.
Students who have exceeded the nominal length of study and do not have an approved agreement on leave of absence or part-time studies are not entitled to supervision.
The midway discussion is included in the hours assigned to supervision.
