Thesis Research

Catalog description

The thesis provides students with the opportunity to undertake an independent research project at the master's level, applying both theoretical content and skills learned throughout the course to propose and implement a project that has practical relevance within the field of study. Based on the guidance of the program coordinators, students will select a research topic within a subject area of particular interest to them (provided that appropriate expertise for supervision is available). Coupled with coursework that is part of the program of study, students will apply elements of project management and basic statistical analysis to their individual projects.
