The Master’s thesis is a demanding development project or research work combining theory, praxis and creation of new knowledge. The thesis subject and aim are based on requirements and needs of working life.
The student is able to:
- combine theoretical framework and pragmatic work with the contextual needs in a development or research project
- network and communicate professionally with relevant organisations and communities
- evaluate critically sources and methods, select the suitable ones and use them systematically and ethically
- document, report and give a presentation of the project or research status and the final results
The Master’s thesis process consists of three stages. At the third stage the student masters the methods and practices used in the branch to be able to analyse and complete the thesis. The student is able to document the final results and report the project according to good ethical principles. At the final seminar the student is capable to give a presentation as well as to publish the thesis. The main responsibility for completing the thesis lies upon the student. After the final seminar the thesis is evaluated by the supervisors.
