Master's Thesis
Students enrolled in a double degree LSM/VSE are required to write one single Master's thesis. Therefore the students will have to find two professors: one at LSM and one at VSE. One will be the main supervisor and the other, the reader.
Students usually start their work for the Master's thesis already during the first year. The Master's thesis will be written in English. A mandatory oral defense, by videoconference, will take place in front of at least two professors.
