End-of-cycle project

- The dissertation must be between 30,000 and 40,000 characters (10 to 15 pages single spaced without plates), plus bibliography.

- It must be a critical, rigorous and personal written work, related to a teacher in the sector of Art History, Archaeology and Musicology education and must demonstrate that the student has acquired the basic skills taught in the bachelor's programme.

- The dissertation can be

o An essay on a topic to be agreed with the teacher in question.

o An initial state of the memory of master.

o A detailed excavation report or detailed internship report.

- The editorial notes and bibliography should follow the citation rules in force in the discipline, particularly those presented in the 'Methods and techniques of art history, archaeology and musicology' course.

- Any plagiarism will result in the postponement and, depending on the extent and severity of plagiarism, other sanctions.

- The use of AI must be disclosed. If the student uses AI, he or she must specify, at the beginning of the work, the tools used, the type of prompt, the type of assistance requested (rewording, summarising, analysis, brainstorming, linguistic correction, etc.), the results obtained, the critical assessment of these results, the sections of the work concerned, etc. In the event of suspected inappropriate use of AI, the TFB supervisor reserves the right to summon the student to an oral examination, at the end of which the final mark for the work will be awarded. If the oral examination confirms the supervisor's suspicion, the student may be given an "F" grade in accordance with the provisions of the RGEE, with the possibility of disciplinary proceedings. If the teacher's suspicion is lifted, cannot be confirmed or if doubt remains, the traditional grading system will be applied.


- The subject of the work must be submitted to the secretariat of the sector by December 1 of the academic year in which the third year of the Bachelor was started.

- The work itself must be submitted no later than the first day of the examination period (May or August). A hard copy must be handed in to the secretariat; an electronic copy to the teacher who supervised its preparation. No extensions will be granted. Failure to meet the submission deadline will result in a mark of 0/20.
