Tasks
The Institute Master's Programme Committee is responsible for the constant process of adjusting and modifying the education programme, for instance, by means of education evaluations, both small-scale and large-scale. The Committee is concerned with possible overlap between courses, whether courses follow up on each other, the exact formulation of regulations for teaching and examinations, etc.
The Master's Programme Committee acts as advisor to the Programme Board. In other to ensure a broad basis for advice, the Committee includes 9 students, in addition to one lecturer for each specialisation. Students are encouraged to participate as much as possible in the resulting reorganisations of education.
The MPC meets once a month. The sessions are open to the public. Students contribute to the MPC's activities through regular written education evaluations and evaluation panels. In addition, students can always approach members of the MPC with remarks concerning the programme.
The meetings take place on the following dates:
- 06 October 2025
- 10 November 2025
- 8 December 2025
- 02 February 2026
- 16 March 2026
