ENG213 Bacheloroppgåve - litteratur
The paper must contain a bibliography of relevant literature, composed in collaboration with the supervisor/tutor. This comes in addition to the primary literature.
75 ECTS credits from four basic courses in English (ENG141, ENG142, ENG143, ENG144 or equivalent thereof) and at least one 10-15 credit specialization course in English literature/culture, either ENG203, ENG205, ENG206 or equivalent. The thesis work should be based on one of the specialization courses, or an equivalent course from a different institution, and can be written in parallel with the course.
This course consists of one individual, written thesis. The BA thesis must be 7000-9000 words (not including the reading list and appendixes). The BA thesis must be written in English. In addition, the candidate must submit a 500 page reading list.
The student has the following learning outcomes after completing ENG213:
- The student has extensive knowledge about one selected literary and/or cultural topic
- The student has basic knowledge about relevant theory and research methods
- The student can work independently with identifying relevant research materials, and with processing and presenting it in an extended written form

------------------
The student must choose a topic and a thesis question in collaboration with their tutor, from whom they will receive advice underway in the process. Otherwise the student is expected to work independently.
The student must submit an outline of the topic, the thesis question and a self-composed curriculum within a deadline agreed with their supervisor/tutor at the beginning of the term.
The curriculum must contain no less than 500 pages of secondary literature and theory, and is subject to approval by the supervisor before the thesis can be submitted. The thesis must contain its own list of works cited, including the primary literature as well as elements from the curriculum.
The student must participate in two-three supervision/tutoring meetings with their appointed member of faculty. Ideally, these should be face-to-face meetings, but online and phone meetings may be substituted if necessary. The thesis must be submitted by the appointed deadline.
