Honors Thesis in Business II

Catalog description

These courses provide students with the opportunity to conduct an independent research project on a topic of choice (within their major) under the supervision of a professor. The sequence is composed of two parts. In 6901H students are required to familiarize themselves with a chosen topic by reviewing the existing literature, collecting data in the case of an empirically oriented thesis, and formulating detailed research questions. In 6902H students are expected to complete the research project in the form of a written thesis. Students will meet with the instructor on a regular basis to discuss progress and issues related to the thesis. At the discretion of the instructor, mid-sequence (end of 6901H) and final (end of 6902H) presentations can be scheduled and/or students might be required to submit an early draft of their thesis at the end of 6901H. At the end of the sequence of two classes, students submit the written thesis to the instructor.
