ARPL 761 MCRP/MSSD Thesis Preparation
This course prepares students for thesis work which is required for graduation. A thesis is an original piece of research, grounded in knowledge of the theories and previous studies in the field, and presented in a manner consistent with research reporting in that field. It embodies a substantial amount of research on primary sources, or on scholarly and critical studies of such sources, or on both. In this context research can be defined as directly creating new knowledge, or locating and critically evaluating existing primary and secondary textual materials, or engaging in any other appropriate scholarly project, provided that the student's original contribution can be clearly identified. Students in this course will undertake the first part of a thesis that will be finished in a subsequent semester and by the end of their studies.
