Main themes

It consists of a work of a more limited scope than a Master Dissertation, consisting in a status quaestionis of a subject relevant to the discipline of the Masters and which can be completed in a year.

Aims

The individual final project must demonstrate the student's ability to describe correctly the results of a personal, objective and methodical work. The length of the work is not a criteria in evaluating its quality. As with the other forms of learning, the individual final project is an essential component of the programme to which it belongs.

The project, irrespective of the subject, allows a student to :
- summarise a given scientific topic,
- put a specific issue in context drawing on existing information,
- present the results of the dissertation.

Evaluation methods

The final project work will be evaluated by the promoter and a reader. The average of their respective marks will determine the final mark for the work. When evaluating the work, the promoter and the reader will take account of the following factors:
- his ability to formulate the object of the research and to correctly state it or a working hypothesis;
- his mastery of the various research tools both bibliographic and documentary;
- the quality of the data collected and its interpretation;
- the expression and coherence of the work;
- the accuracy, clarity and rigour of the written work;
- the respect of the formal limits to the presentation of  a written work.
