Course Contents |
: |
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. |
