Learning outcomes of the course :
|
| Through preparation of a dissertation, students must show the skills they have acquired during their studies in terms of personal and thorough research. They will demonstrate the ability to use critical sense and the skills of analysis and synthesis. The quality of the dissertation is not determined by its length. |

Each dissertation will be subject to a public oral defence. This will start with a summary presentation (maximum of 7 minutes) during which the student should present the subject of his or her research, the methods used and the results obtained, while highlighting any specific contribution that the dissertation makes. Each committee member will make a commentary on the written work and will ask questions to which the student should reply. |
