The teaching is mainly given in connection with three gatherings, two physical and one digital. At the physical gatherings, there are lectures, excursions and group work.
In the periods between the gatherings, there is work with assignments that receive individual feedback, and online support/activities.
Participation in physical gatherings and assignments is compulsory. The gatherings normally take place on campus Levanger, or at another location in Trøndelag.
Physical gatherings are mandatory because excursions and experience with different environments are central to geography. However, exemption from gatherings can be granted for special reasons such as acute illness, granted top sports status or other. Application for exemption with documentation is sent to the study counselor. Study work as an alternative to the gathering must be expected.
