Contents
SVF-3023 is an informal and low-intensity course, which starts by agreement with a thesis supervisor in March and runs until November. The project proposal is intended to define the empirical basis of the proposed work (literature, fieldwork, data collection) and discuss the theoretical and methodological framework and choices for the Masters dissertation. Such methodological and theoretical foundations will be developed further through a course of reading tailored to the student''''s needs and production of a research-paper. This should form a central component of the final dissertation.
