The participants design a thesis (synopsis) and will be able to communicate topic, research question, method in different contexts. They argue in how they will position their study in the field of gender studies and in what way their study will contribute to research.

In the SE Master's Thesis Colloquium we will discuss epistemological, methodological and methodological aspects of gender studies in order to develop the research question for one’s own thesis. We will also develop theory, method, research design, and structure of the master thesis and discuss these aspects with the fellow participants.

ATTENTION: The SE Master's Thesis Colloquium is planned and taught in close cooperation with the SE Methodological Competence. It is therefore recommended to attend both classes in the same semester. The SE Master's Thesis Colloquium will take place at the same time (time, room) in the first half of the semester.
One of the aims of the SE Master's Thesis Colloquium is to lay the groundwork for the Master's thesis project (e.g. preparing the synopsis). Participants of the SE Methodological Competence will the continue to work on their projects (concretization and implementation).
