Theses/Final Papers guidance of the Department of Finance

Thesis represents a critical step in your educational experience. This applies to both the final papers required by the Bachelor's Programs and especially to the dissertations required by Master of Science Programs.
In fact, when writing your thesis, you can pursue a variety of critical goals:

• identify a focus in which you may want to specialize your professional profile
• find an applied context within which you can apply what you have learned during your studies
• gain an opportunity to meet and interact with managers and consultants, in case studies
• test and improve your critical attitudes

If you are enrolled in a MSc. program, please review the new rules concerning MSc. theses, and especially the difference between theses and RESEARCH theses. Recall that the latter type strives to give an innovative contribution to a reference literature.
In this page, you can find information that we hope is useful to start your research project at your best.
