| Læringsmål |
For at opnå karakteren 12 skal den
studerende, med ingen eller få uvæsentlige mangler eller fejl,
opfylde følgende læringsmål: The student must by him/herself
formulate the topic of the masters thesis.
The topic should be chosen to cover relevant subjects of the
courses in the programme.
The topic must evolve from a theme or relevant problem which
involves both philosophical as well as business economic elements.
Methodological outcome /contribution from methodology
After completing the course students should be able to:
* Handle an iterative process, where processing knowledge and
formulating the research question is mutually influential
* Fomulate a research question which can steers and structures the
research process and content of the thesis
* Explain the relevance of the formulation of the research
questions
* Explain and evaluate the choice of methodology used to answer the
research question
* Select and process the theories used for formulating the research
question, analysis and conclusion
* Explain and evaluate the choice of theory used to answer the
research question
* Select and process primary and secondary sources used as
documentation in the analysis
* Explain and evaluate the overall correlations between: the
research question, the selection and use of theory, the collection
and character of empirical data, the analysis, the conclusion, and
the generalizability of the findings
* Discuss the findings of the thesis in the overall perspective of
the philosophies of the human and social sciences
To achieve the grade 12, students should meet the following
learning objectives with no or only minor mistakes or errors:
- The thesis integrates and takes advantage of relevant
philosophical and business economical elements in answering the
research question
- The thesis is organized to enable the analysis and discussions
to be relevant and necessary in order to be able to uncover the
research problem
- The correlation between the research question, the definition,
the outline, the analysis and the conclusion is such that the paper
seems to be logically answering the research question
- There is an explanation and evaluation of the overall
correlations between: the research question, the selection and use
of theory, the collection and character of empirical data (if such
exists)
- The thesis must discuss and evaluate the use of the selected
theories, methodology and empirical data (if such exists)
- There must be consistency in the choice and use of theories and
empirical data such that these interacts and complements the
production of knowledge (valid for empirical theses only)
- All claims in the analysis and conclusion is documented and/or
discussed
- The analysis is contextualized within the field of study
- The analysis is focused, i.e. in depth and forming a synthesis
on the grounds of theories and possible empirical data
- The thesis shows an understanding of the correlations within
the context of the topic and discuss and generalize conclusions to
other contexts
- The thesis is based on relevant academic research
- The thesis discusses the background for the chosen theories,
and how this influences the creation of knowledge (valid
particularly or exclusively for theoretical theses) The thesis
contributes a new perpective, e.g. by applying known theories to
new empirical data, or applying new theory to an old
topic

thesis within the deadline.
