This course expands on previous knowledge and skills acquired throughout the years and offers students the opportunity to work on a major self-initiated research. It emphasizes research and analysis as well as processes that lead to a comprehensive thesis. By the end of this course, the students must develop an original body of work, culminating in a thesis and final presentation of the written work. An academic supervisor will be assigned to provide academic guidance to each student in conducting and writing up the thesis. The student must present the research proposal in front of an academic panel for monitoring and feedback purposes within a month from the starting of the course, and then present the final research work in front of the same academic panel at the end of the course, as well as submit the written thesis.
