Courses:
These workshops are directly linked to the introductory class on the general topic and will be held while students are working on their Master’s theses. The participants are introduced to the techniques employed in writing an academic piece of work. Support will also be given on methods of research, using international literature, and its systematic review. Students have the opportunity to show the results of their work in the form of presentations, and to initiate discussion and debate on the topics concerned. The problems which are presented in the final thesis will be discussed in class and possible solutions sought.
