This course is the last opportunity for students to discuss their arguments with their supervising lecturers. The aim is to promote an in-depth discussion of the arguments on which each student focuses in their dissertation. The methodologies to be used, the critical review of the bibliographic material and the choice of study problems (theoretical and empirical) will be subject to critical review and final assessment, thus leading to a dissertation outline. Students must be able to defend their work argumentatively and show the impact it may have on the national and international community.
