Varnatímabil meistararitgerða - haust 2026
27.08.2026
Það er aftur komið að meistaraprófsvörnum hjá Háskólasetri Vestfjarða! Fyrsta vörnin fer fram þriðjudaginn 1. september og markar upphafið að spennandi vikum fram undan.
Á þessu varnartímabili munu 15 nemendur kynna og verja meistararitgerðir sínar, sem fjalla um fjölbreytt og áhugaverð viðfangsefni. Við óskum öllum nemendum okkar innilega til hamingju með að vera komin að þessum mikilvæga áfanga og óskum þeim alls hins besta í vörnum sínum.
Allar meistaraprófsvarnir eru opnar almenningi og eru öll hjartanlega velkomin. Einnig er hægt að fylgjast með vörnum í gegnum Zoom. Tengla á hverja vörn má finna í töflunni hér fyrir neðan.
