| All graduates from LIFE will come to act in a professional setting, in a company, institution or organization. The companies' and organizations' demands and expectations towards LIFE graduates may be expressed as a unity of skills and comptences which may be difficult for students to acquire by only following courses and other more traditional student activities. A Project in Practice can help students in the process of developing a more professionalized qualification profile. The overall goal for the stay is to give you: . Experience with applying theories and methods from your field of study in a concrete way in a company/organization . A broader insight into and understanding of the work and social contexts which your field of study is a part of . Understanding of a work place and organization culture . Experience with cross-disciplinary collaboration and communication. The purpose of the final report is for you to show that you can reflect on the usage of your field of study in a work-based context along with reflecting over what you have learned. After having completed the activity, it is expected that students are able to: Knowledge - account for the specific knowledge in your field of study which was relevant for you to complete the stay; be it knowledge which you have gained from your previous studies as well as knowledge you have gained during the stay. - describe and understand the structure and culture of companies/organizations in a manner that allows you to explain your own role and specific function in the organization all together. Skills - use subject-specific knowledge and relevant methods in a concrete professional relation - collaborate and communicate efficiently with people who are familiar with your area of study as well as with people from other disciplines. Competences - demonstrate understanding of how new knowledge and new skills contribute to your personal and professional development - reflect over what you have learned in connection with the usage of the subject-specific knowledge you brought with you at the beginning of the Project in Practice - reflect over your role and function in the organization and, at a concrete level, reflect over what you have learned through your stay. | |||||||||||
