| Skills |
Knowledge |
| Students are able to understand scientific literature in the form of protocols, articles and books (k2,k3). Students demonstrate their individual ability to operate advanced scientific instrumentation and/or apply advanced research methods (k3). They know how and when to use correct experimental methods and can plan, develop and adapt techniques and protocols for their project (k5,k6). Students know how to report their results in a scientific and comprehensive manner (k3). Students can analyze their results critically and evaluate these in the context of other, published work (k4,k5). Students can structure their results and derive conclusions from these and suggest future avenues (k4,k5,k6). Students can compile and present their work in a form suitable for a target audience (k2,k3,k6).
