| Goals | To enable the student to show that he / she can carry out an independent piece of research on a theme in a scientifically sound manner and to demonstrate his/her ability to address a specific problem in a scientifically sound, ethical, thorough and precise manner in the course of a given period of time, and to help the student to communicate his or her findings convincingly. |
| Course Content | The Master Thesis consists of a report based on an independent piece of research to be completed following the completion of the thought courses. The thesis is based on a pre-defined set of problems and lead by a supervisor in the same academic unit. The supervision ensures that the student gets advice regarding literature, approaches towards solving the problems being dealt with, the acquisition and treatment of data, and ethical guidelines in research. The final exam consists of the thesis and an oral exam. |
