Course Outline and Method

This course is the final phase of the policy seminar series, and is required for those who intend to write and submit an undergraduate thesis. The graduation thesis represents the culmination of all academic achievements gained throughout the 4-year-study in the CRPS program. The successful completion of the thesis indicates the high quality of education achieved in the Bachelor of Arts in Policy Science at the time of graduation. Therefore, in order to earn credits, students are required to submit a thesis of high academic excellence in all areas of research and writing. In this seminar, the academic supervisor will give guidance on finalizing the design and writing of the graduation thesis.
