In this compact course of two to three afternoons, students will learn how to write a scientific working paper and a thesis (bachelor or master). They will learn how to structure their paper / thesis and find a central topic, as well as how to retrieve, evaluate and use literature. Lastly, they learn how to turn in a formally correct piece of work. This course is directed at all Management Economics students (no focus on Business Information Systems). This course should not only be seen as a preparation for a seminar, but also for a Bachelor or Master thesis.
