GEND 4102 - Honours Gender Studies Thesis

The dissertation provides each Honours student with the opportunity to undertake an original and independent research project of their own choice. The thesis or dissertation (12,000-15,000 words) is the written document of the research project and its findings. Students will be paired with an academic supervisor to provide guidance and assistance with the development of the research topic and questions, and provide regular feedback and support for students. Undertaking such an independent project allows for the development of a range of advanced academic and research skills for example, analysis, synthesis of diverse forms of evidence, project management, critical thinking and extended form writing. .
