Learning outcomes of the learning unit
15 Pr
The course's objective is to prepare students to produce a master's thesis, by introducing them to scientific investigation and writing. More specifically, the course "Introduction to Research in Literary Studies" tests the following skills: reading and understanding an important contribution in a specific field, based on a scientific text, chosen from a list distributed; situating this contribution in its context; developing a personal point of view, separate from that of the author's, following an original line of enquiry.
Startinf from their chosen text, student identify a potential extension of the author's analysis (10,000 characters, spaces included; bibliography is provided as an appendix to the project - this does not count toward the 10,000 character limit) and develop a reasoned research plan backed by at least two other approved references on the topic.
The student should follow the typographical standards of scientific writing in the field studied.
