handledaren
utgående från studentens idé(seminarium).

Masterarbetet utförs inom något av Arcadas
projekt inom profilområdena hälsofrämjande,
social delaktighet eller evidens och säkerhet,
eller som uppdrag från arbetslivet (om du har
en
idé om ett utvecklingsarbete i anslutning till
din arbetsplats eller annars, kom och diskutera
idén med examensansvariga eller någon av
