| Omschrijving | A week before the start of the semester, several themes are announced on Nestor. After the introduction lecture, students hand in their theme preferences and are assigned to a theme and an associated supervisor, on the basis of preferences and previous study performance. Within the theme that students have been assigned to, they identify a relevant problem. Next, students develop a research design and conduct their research individually. The theme´s supervisor sets intermediate deadlines, organizes a series of workshops and individual meetings, which allow all students to regularly discuss their thesis setup, progress and preliminary research results. Thus, they receive regular feedback both from their peers and the theme´s supervisor. At the end of the semester the students submit their bachelor´s thesis, which is a structured and balanced report that critically analyzes a relevant problem and discusses the research findings and their implication. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
