What can the tool help me with?
Click a question to see how each feature works.
What do I actually get access to?

One platform with two workspaces: ThesisPartner for bachelor's and master's theses, and Students' Partner for research projects. Dashboard, timeline, literature, analysis, writing and presentation — all in one place.

Who is ThesisPartner for?

For bachelor's and master's students. From topic and research question to submission — with a clear schedule, critical path, deadlines, and reminders.

Who is Students' Partner for?

For students in Norway. Structure for the entire research process — from idea and method to publishing and collaboration.

How does it help with the literature review?

A living overview of your sources, with DOI lookup, Oria search, and BibTeX export straight to Zotero or Word.

How is the timeline set up?

Enter your deadline and method — get a full schedule with a critical path and reminders by email and calendar.

How is privacy handled?

Sikt/NSD checklists are built in. Your data is stored in the EU, and your research data is never entered into the portal. Guidance on notification forms, consent, anonymisation and storage plans.

Is it tuned to Norwegian universities?

Tuned to UiO, NTNU, UiB, UiT, and the university colleges — with Oria search and the reference styles faculties actually require.

Does it work in both Norwegian and English?

All content, templates, and guides exist in both languages — switch any time, even mid-thesis.

How do I keep track of deadlines?

The schedule calculates the critical path — what must happen before what — with reminders well ahead of submission.

Is there writing support and templates?

A writing studio with Word templates for the usual sections, with your project details filled in for you.

Can institutions adopt it collectively?

Group enrolment for whole cohorts and supervisor groups, with an overview for supervisors and administration.

What does it cost?

The core features are free for master's students. Create an account and get access in minutes. No card details needed.

Real quotes from the pilot cohort — names and institutions added after the pilot.
"The critical path showed me data collection had to start three weeks earlier than I thought. It saved my submission."
