Objective

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.

By completing the thesis, the student demonstrates mastery of the following objectives:
- combine theoretical framework and pragmatic work with the contextual needs in a meaningful development 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
- possess the knowledge and skills needed to promote sustainable development
- document, report and give presentations of the project and the final results

Content

The Master’s thesis process consists of three stages.

At the second phase the work continues by deepening and widening the theoretical framework based on earlier research and other literature. The goal is to combine the theory with practice. This research phase is presented on the second seminar and discussed with the seminar participants and the supervisors. After the second seminar the student updates the thesis draft.
