ARK-E5520 - Thesis seminar, Lecture, 8.9.2023-15.12.2023

Assignment 1.  Nature of your Thesis and a Preliminary Abstract

Deadline 29.9. 17:00

Give your thesis a headline (and a subheadline) and write a very short description (abstract) of your coming thesis - max. 2000 characters with spaces. After the abstract text, list a set of sources that you already know you will be using for the thesis, or a description of the types of sources/literature/references, that you think you will be using (the list is not included in the 2000 character-count).

This is the first ‘try’ to formulate your thesis ideas in written form, so nothing needs to be ready or polished.

Be prepared to present your thesis idea/topic with a few minutes ‘elevator pitch’ (based on your short abstract) during our 06.10. session.

Deadline for the assignment is 29.9.
(There’s no session on the 29^th, but we will use the texts for dividing you into discussion groups for the 06.10. and later sessions.)
