In this course the student will get to know a wide variety of strategies by means of which different languages deal with the same communicative needs (e.g. question formation, relativization, distinguishing subject and object, mapping…

In this course the student will get introduced to general principles and parameters which characterise feasible phonetic systems in human languages. Principles which control phonological representations such as sound categorisation,…

When did the Viking Age actually begin? Wood, turf, stone and daub – how did people live, and how were families organised? Power struggle, curiosity or greed? What were the incentives for Scandinavian expansion? What impact did the…

The degree project requires a literature survey and specialised studies. Furthermore, a number of compulsory activities are included, in the form of teaching sessions and seminars that treat e.g. scientific writing in English and Swedish,…

This course is intended to cover fundamental questions on the very substance of science and the scientific method; on what distinguishes good and proper science from pseudoscience, from charlatanry and plain cheating; the relation between…

In this course we will try to address these and similar questions, by looking at and discussing the wealth of gender science applied to physics. The course will consist of two parts: This part is an introduction to gender science and how…

The course is for you who want to integrate self reflection and techniques to meet tentions in your work and studies as a musician. Methods and reflecting perspectives are combined to understand the complexity in professional musicianship…

The course deals primarily with economic decision making concerning consumption and production. The course starts with a treatment of the underlying principles that guide an individual's optimal consumption decisions under both certainty…

This course starts with an introduction to descriptive statistics, probability theory and inference. Thereafter, the course treats problems connected with establishing and quantifying the relationship between different economics variables…
