The course aims at preparing and supporting students in writing their MA thesis. It will focus on topics such as identifying a thesis topic and respective key thematic ideas, structuring and drafting an outline as well as a thesis introduction. Based on examples from former theses as well as work in progress from participants the discussion will include questions of methodology, theoretical grounding, academic language and bibilographical standards. Students will present their own drafts of possible topics, outlines and introductions that will be viewed in class in an effort to enhance the writing process.
