The project work consists of an independent assignment in biophysics. The subject of the project is determined in consultation between the student and the examiner and should represent an in-depth study within the field of biophysics. The project can take various forms, such as self-studies and simulations or practical work in a research laboratory. The project work should be at an advanced level and correspond to 5 weeks of full-time studies.

Examination and completion
Grading scale
P, F
Examination
- PRO1 - Project work, 7.5 credits, grading scale: P, F
Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability. The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students. If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.
The examination will be adapted to the design of the projects and may consist of, for example, written assignments, oral presentations, and report writing. This will be decided at the beginning of the course in consultation between the examiner and the student.
Examiner
Ethical approach
- All members of a group are responsible for the group's work.
- In any assessment, every student shall honestly disclose any help received and sources used.
- In an oral assessment, every student shall be able to present and answer questions about the entire assignment and solution.
