Thesis topic

You must give a brief description of the area in which you would like to work on your Honours thesis. Include possible research questions, theoretical concepts, and methodological approach(es) that you would like to engage in your thesis. While this is not a final decision on your part, this description will be used to assign you a thesis supervisor, so you should think carefully about this topic. You are welcome to consult the Honours coordinator about this description, or ask for advice from any member of the department.
