    Beschreibung

    A master thesis in the Master of Science in Environmental Sciences and Humanities serves to demonstrate the ability of a student to engage in an argumentative analysis of interdisciplinary challenges in environmental practice and governance from an ethical or humanist perspective. The thesis demonstrates independent research of a student leading to a scientific paper, ideally ready for handing in to a scientific journal. It documents the student’s acquired competencies in examining an issue or topic of environmental practice and governance following scientific standards.
