Degree project: Prehospital Emergency Care

Instruction is in the form of literature study, supervision, and seminars. Supervision is provided individually, in pairs, or in a group and may be web-based or offered in connection with on-campus meetings. Supervision is always provided individually in the final phase.

The degree project is a research study with clear relevance to nursing in prehospital emergency care and is carried out as a systematic literature study or as an empirical study.

Students draw up a project plan on the basis of their chosen research area and information searches in databases. The project plan includes a description of a chosen research method and ethical considerations. The degree project is carried out as a written work structured on the research process. This course is offered at 100% pace.

If the time limit (15 workdays) for required revisions is not observed, a Fail (U) grade will be recorded.
