Master's thesis
During the fourth semester you will work on your Master's thesis, preferably in an international environment (e.g. multinational company, supranational organization).

Setting aside the practical relevance of the thesis, we attach great importance to an adequate academic level of the thesis. In accordance with the entire program, the thesis must be written in English.
