IAA799 Master’s Thesis

[6–0, 6 cr.]

The Master’s Thesis is the final requirement for graduation, and consists of independent research under the guidance of an advisor. The course will be completed with the submission  of a thesis document, according to specific guidelines. The thesis is not an expanded term paper but rather a carefully structured, multi-chapter exploration of a significant topic. It is approximately 50-75 double-spaced pages in length and exhibits a full scholarly textual apparatus: footnotes, bibliography, illustrations, and other relevant documentation.
