Rule:
Provide both a Swedish and an English title. Courses that include a degree project must be named in a specific way: see the examples below.
Tip:
If the course is included in a programme, make sure the course title matches the one in the programme syllabus.
Questions to consider:
- Is the title unique to the subject area?
- Does the title provide a clear indication of the course content?
- Do the Swedish and English titles convey the same meaning?
Example:
Fransk 1600-talslyrik, 7,5 hp/French 17th-Century Poetry, 7.5 credits
Special rules for courses that include a degree project:
Courses that include a degree project must contain the term Examensarbete/Degree Thesis in the title as well as a designation indicating the degree to which the course leads and, in the case of a general qualification, the main field of study in which the degree thesis is to be completed.
Examples, general qualification:
Kandidatexamensarbete i informatik / Degree Thesis in Information Systems
Magisterexamensarbete i omvårdnad / Degree Thesis in Nursing
Masterexamensarbete i mikrodataanalys / Degree Thesis in Microdata Analysis
Examples, professional qualification:
