Entry requirements
Before you start your thesis, you need to have finished at least 30 EC on level 3, among which either the second or fourth course of your specialisation

The Bachelor thesis History is the individual completion of the Bachelor of History. The final dissertation may stem from the theme of your Specialisation, but is at all times an independent product.
In the first block you will work on an outline for the final paper; an outline of sufficient quality is a prerequisite for further participation in the thesis process.

The structure of the paper must recognizably include:

- a clearly defined and motivated problem statement;
- an elaboration of the main question into sub-questions;
- an explanation of the theoretical/analytical framework;
- a reflection on the method used and its operationalization;
- a critical justification and appreciation of the empirical material used (literature, sources);
- an argument presenting the empirical material and relating it to the problem or question;
- a conclusion, briefly summarizing and analyzing the results found, again in light of the question;
- a bibliography and a notes section.
