With literary specialization, moreover, these 30 ECTS credits must fall into the category of period courses.
By working with a master thesis students -will learn to formulate research questions -use scientific research methods -give independent contributions to the subject

The thesis should have a length of up to 15,000 words (or approx. 50 typed pages).
