Master's Thesis in International Business and Marketing
The entire main profile must be completed before the student can start the master's thesis.
The course is only open to students in the study programme Master of Science in Business.
On successful completion of the thesis, students should be able to:
- define and clarify a relevant research question
- describe and explain the relevant theory that puts the problem into a scientific context
- select appropriate methods
- carry out systematic analysis and draw plausible conclusions.
An important part of the learning process is to derive practical implications based on the findings of the thesis.
In addition, the thesis demonstrates that the student is able to outline some issues for further research. This means that the thesis in addition to showing that students master the scientific working methods are also able to make their own contributions in a larger scientific context. The choice of topic must be discussed and approved by the supervisor.
Individual student work and supervision.
The thesis is normally written in the spring semester, but due to the composition of different courses it may be appropriate for some students to work more systematically with the task in the autumn. Students writing their theses in the spring should use the autumn semester to work out research questions and elaborate relevant theory. The student will be assigned a supervisor.
