Students will be required to conduct original research in their chosen field of study, under the
guidance of a faculty advisor. The research phase will involve the development of a research proposal,
data collection, analysis, and interpretation, and the writing and defending of a thesis.
• Seminars and Workshops: Throughout the program, students will be required to attend and present
their research at various seminars and workshops. This will provide students with an opportunity to
interact with experts in their field and to receive feedback on their research.
