    SCI Master's Thesis

    Welcome to the School of Science Master's Thesis infopages!

    Students are required to complete a master's thesis which is a research assignment with a workload corresponding to 30 credits. The thesis is written on a topic usually related to the student's major and agreed upon between the student and a professor who specializes in the topic. On reasonable grounds, the school may also grant permission for the thesis to be written on a topic related to the minor.

    Prosessikaavio/thesis process (pdf)

    You can submit your thesis for evaluation at the same time when submitting the request for degree certificate. The date of approval of the thesis will be the deadline for submitting the applications, although the approval of the thesis will not be processed by the Degree Programme Committee until after the deadline for submitting theses and applications for evaluation.

    Example: It is possible for you to graduate on 31 December 2021, because the official date of acceptance of the thesis will be registered as 31 December 2021, even though your master’s thesis will be processed by the Degree Programme Committee in January. The deadline for submitting the degree certificate request is the official date of graduation, which will be printed on the degree certificate.
