Pol 480W: Senior Thesis (in Political Theory or
not) |
|
|
|
The
senior thesis represents the culmination of each student's undergraduate
education at WU. The purpose of this course is to provide a structured
environment in which the student will undertake this analytical research and
writing project. The student will be responsible for the development of a
clear, concise, coherent, and logical thesis argument, 'original' research
that goes beyond summaries of books and articles, analysis of competing
claims, and a presentation format worthy of his/her advanced knowledge of
political science methodologies. Through the duration of the course, the
research design, methods of analysis, and written presentation will be
subjected to multiple stages of criticism and revision. |
