Are you passionate about international humanitarian law (IHL) and would like to learn more about it? We are in the process of setting up a student team to represent the University of Oslo (UiO) at the world’s major IHL competition, the Jean Pictet Concours.*
If you are interested in being part of the UiO team, please send an email with your CV and a memoaddressing two out of the three questions below. More information is linked under detailed teaching plan on this web page .
The purpose of the mid-term evaluation is to provide feedback to your instructor concerning your learning experiences so far in this course. You will find a short questionnaire in the folder “Evaluation” in Fronter.
Your responses will help your instructor improve his or her teaching, not only in this course but in other courses as well. Your participation is voluntary and anonymous, you will not be asked for your name or other identifying information. Results are provided only to your instructor, although he or she may share them with others for purposes of professional development.
Thank you for your participation.
Kind regards,
