Objectives
Students will learn critical thinking and develop their academic English writing skills, social scientific argumentation, ability to reach independent conclusions and defend them, as well as presentation skills. They acquire the necessary skills to use the UTU library resources in an efficient and effective way. Students also know about the expectations, ethical aspects and requirements for solid research. Students will have built a solid foundation for their independent Thesis work by internalising the principles of social science research. These skills are necessary to accomplish a Master’s thesis. As transferable skills students will learn how to manage a project, maintain records, work independently, present and speak in front of an audience, and how to convey complex information to audiences. Moreover, students will acquire problem solving skills and interpersonal skills when providing and receiving constructive feedback both orally and in written form
