Goals
Description
The master thesis is an academic paper, independently written by the student, that focuses on a particular subject and contributes new insights to the existing academic literature. The subject under scrutiny is analyzed from a theoretical and/or empirical perspective. The master thesis gives you the opportunity to analyze a specific problem within a certain area of study and to show the ability to carry out original, academic research. Before the thesis process starts, students receive a training on the thesis regulations and how to write a thesis proposal. In addition, students will be assisted in finding a thesis supervisor.
