Main themes The thesis in criminology is a personal and detailed work involving research and reflection and which testifies to the student's mastery of a specfic criminological subject. It pursues the objectives indicated above. The follow-up of the thesis work is an individual effort as early as the second year of the Master's programme. In total autonomy, the student is completely responsible for the progress of his research and his thesis; he will receive exactly the advice and guidance that he requests from his sponsor. The student and his sponsor will generally meet at least three times a month during the second year of the Master's programme. The student must respect the various progress deadlines that his sponsor may impose upon him apart from those stipulated by the Thesis Regulations.
Aims The objective of the thesis is to highlight the student's autonomy, critical understanding, other personal qualities and skills.
Content The thesis consists of around a hundred pages of written work and constitutes the culmination of the study programme. It will be defended in public. This is the opportunity for the student to develop, in the context of a specific crimonological question and in an autonomous way, his own approach as regards thinking and research concerning what he acquired during the full course.
Other information The marks allocated to the thesis cover all the student's tasks: attending the thesis supervisory seminar, written work and the viva. The assessment of written work accounts for at least three quarters of the final mark for the thesis. The mark allocated to the thesis is based on 20 points but represents 50 per cent of the points for the Master 2 examination.
