The professional bachelor project in the final semester concludes the programme when all other exams have been passed.

Attendance to a given activity or submission of assignments, projects, etc. may be mandatory. Fulfilment of such mandatory activities is a requirement for taking the exam in the subject element. If a student fails to submit a mandatory activity on time, they will have used one of the exams attempt for the exam for which the mandatory activity is a prerequisite.

Combined written and oral examination

An individual professional bachelor assignment must make up 25-30 standard pages; in groups of two, it must make up 35-40 standard pages and in groups of three, it must make up 45-50 standard pages. For professional bachelor assignments prepared in groups, it must be quite clear who contributed what.

External censure

Together with the programme’s other exams, the professional bachelor project must demonstrate that the programme’s goals for learning outcomes have been achieved.

The overall assessment of a professional bachelor project includes the student's writing skills. The academic content will carry most weight, while the writing skills will carry less, however, not insignificant, weight, with spelling carrying only insignificant weight.

Spelling and writing skills may be disregarded upon the student’s documentation of a relevant specific impairment.

Make-up exams
A student who has been prevented from taking an exam due to a documented illness or another unforeseen circumstance will be given the opportunity to take the exam as soon as possible. If the exam is scheduled in the programme’s last examination period, the student will be given the opportunity to retake the exam in the same examination period or in continuation of this period.
The make-up exam may be the same as the next regular exam. The student is responsible for finding out when the make-up takes place. Information about the time and place for the make-up exams can be found on Fronter, but the student will also receive a notification from KEA's examination system when the flow for the make-up exam is released for submission of assignments.
In the event of acute illness on the day of submission or the time of the examination, KEA must be notified, cf. KEA's rules on this.
If the illness is not documented according to the above rules, the student will have used one exam attempt. The student will bear the cost of obtaining the medical certificate.
Re-exams
With a failed exam, or failure to appear at the exam, the student is automatically registered for the re-examination, provided that the student has an exam attempt left. The re-examination may be the same as the next regular exam.
For oral exams based on written projects, the examiner decides whether the student may sit a re-exam in the project they failed in, or whether a new project must be prepared. This decision reflects whether or not the student will be able to pass the oral exam based on the written project.
The student is responsible for finding out when the re-exam takes place. Information about the time and place for re-examinations can be found on Fronter, and the student will also receive a notification from KEA's examination system when the re-examination flow is released for submission of assignments.
The programme may grant an exemption from the automatic registration provided this is justified by exceptional circumstances, including documented disabilities.
