Prerequisites

The prerequisite(s) for this Teaching Unit (Unité d’enseignement – UE) for the programmes/courses that offer this Teaching Unit are specified at the end of this sheet.
Main themes
The masters dissertation, irrespective of the subject, allows a student to :
- carry out a critical analysis and summarise a given scientific topic,
- put a specific issue/statement in context drawing on existing information,
- present the results of the dissertation by justifying the methodological choices, explaining the hypotheses and scientifically stating the results obtained.
Content
This second part of the dissertation works in collaboration with a promoter and, if necessary, a co-promoter, during the first stages of the research. Afterwards, the student will finalize his/her work independently until the submission of the manuscript and the defense in front of a jury.    
Teaching methods
See contents. Individualized accompaniment at the beginning, then work in autonomy.
Evaluation methods
The evaluation of the dissertation is carried out on the basis of the manuscript by a jury composed of the promoter, the co-promoter if applicable, and a reader designated on the basis of the subject, under the supervision of a chairperson. At the end of this discussion, the student will be allowed (or not, if the work is judged insufficient) to present his/her work. The final grade will be based primarily on the manuscript but will also take this defense into account.
