Information about the thesis
The two universities will provide detailed information on procedures and related deadlines throughout the Programme. For reference:
- Students must follow the procedures and meet the deadlines set by both institutions when working on their thesis.

- The thesis project is an individual piece of work.
- Each university will assess the final thesis according to its own criteria.
In the second semester of the mobility year, students are required to attend thesis preparation courses at the University of Gothenburg.

Presenting the thesis, acting as a discussant (opposition) on another student's thesis, and submitting the final version of the thesis are mandatory requirements for obtaining the degree from the University of Gothenburg. The thesis presentation takes place in May, while the final paper is due to be submitted in June.
