Final theses
Bachelor’s and master’s theses are pieces of academic writing. An effective final thesis requires a precise research question that addresses a current relevant issue—it is to run through your text like a thread or coherent argument. The thesis shall craft a logical and well-structured argument. It is essential that you choose and correctly apply a suitable research methodology that aligns well with the intended scope of your research and its objectives. Your arguments shall be conclusive, based on sound academic literature research (including journals and original papers in English), grounded in theory, and show intellectual penetration. All sources shall be cited carefully and correctly. Your argument is convincing and explains how your work contributes to the academic discussion and develops conditions that successfully translate into practice.
