Hi there,
I “ended” the Bachelor degree in 2006 (all courses passed plus thesis) anyhow due to changes in the European system there has been a huge delay in the examination…they kind of forgot about me… The response was given only in 2009. So long story short, I am about to represent a new Bachelor thesis in accordance with the “New standards”.
In the meanwhile I got a job as Landscape Architect in Norway! The company I work for gave me a 6 months contract due to the “no paper”issue, now they are offering 6 more cause legally they can’t provide a permanent contract as long as I do not get “THE PAPER”. Concerning the salary I am paid as a person with a legal degree, so there’s no loss. The bad side is that with a temporary contract I can’t get paid holidays and other little benefits. The GOOD thing is that in the company i am regarded as a professional and not as a student. So I believe the “paper” is relevant for legal issues but not as much for the real practice, an employer is looking mostly at your skills as Landscape Architect rather than at the degree!
Good luck!
