Examination details (and PhD students, please send me a mail)
1. There are apparently 3 PhD and as many as 14 Master students who are planning to take the exam for the STK 9190 / 4190 course. The main part of the examination process is *The Project*. I give a set of exercises on day t_0, currently set to Fri June 1, and the students hand in their written reports on day t_1, currently set to Tue June 12.
2. There will then be *oral examination*, so far stipulated to take place on Thu June 14 and Fri June 15. This might be 20 minute sessions, depending on the actual number of Master students taking the exam.
3. The 3 PhD students are required by the system to prove their worth & maturity by giving *oral presentations*, on topics to be selected and agreed upon. These might be 25 minute presentation in class (i.e. for all of us to listen to), followed by some discussion. These presentations should take place during the first half of May. Can these three PhD students please send me a mail? Martin T, Christoffer Laache, plus one more (and possibly Leiv Tore)?
There will be no four-hour written exam for the course.
I'll be updating the Nils Collection of exercises and lecture notes during the coming two weeks.
