Year 2The Dissertation is an empirical study, drawing on primary data and following the scientific canons by which educational studies are judged. A clearly structured conceptual framework and an appropriate form of critical analysis shall integrate the masterwork. The Dissertation is the capstone experience in the programme, allowing students to contribute to a better understanding of Macau educational trends, issues, and policies. It tests the student’s mastery of the field and their ability to work independently within it.
Each student is assigned to a supervisor who assists him/her throughout the process from approval of the Dissertation Proposal by the University to completion of the entire Dissertation.
