Development of Master’s Thesis and Defence (PZK_032)
About Study Course
Objective
Drafting and defence of a Master’s thesis.
Prerequisites
All the necessary study courses of the programme have been mastered.
Learning outcomes
Students will obtain in-depth knowledge of the selected topic of the Master’s thesis from both the empirical and theoretical perspective. Students will be familiar with the methodological and methodical issues of large-scale work that can be used not only in the development of this and other possible diploma papers, but also in professional activities.
Students will conduct large-scale individual work under stress, when a range of tasks of different importance and complexity are to be done at the same time. Skills acquired during the Master’s thesis development process will include work planning, task prioritization skills, as well as stress resilience skills. Students will deepen their skills to listen to the views of others (members of the defence commission, paper supervisor and students) about their work and assess the need for improvement.
Through the development of the Master’s thesis, students will improve the competence to develop new innovative solutions in professional work in the academic environment, public administration, the non-governmental sector and the business environment.
