Learning unit contents
The end of study work is the personal work of a student who treats a research question in relation to the subjects taught in the Master. It allows the student to demonstrate his/her ability to solve a theoretical or practical problem; linked to his/her orientation, in a scientific, discussed and coherent approach (working hypothesis, literature assessment, personal investigations). The student has also to show that it is able to synthesize the gathered information in a clear and concise manner.
