Project Work and Thesis

The Thesis is the crowning piece of one’s studies at bachelor level synthesising the knowledge and skills a student has acquired. At the Faculty of Economics, students are given the opportunity to complete their thesis in four semesters, in the framework of the subjects called Preparatory Course for Project Work (Prep Course, for short), Project Work 1 and 2, and the Thesis itself. Undertaking extensive research, following the written guidelines, and respecting the advice of your supervisors will ensure that your thesis is sophisticated and of high quality, and therefore, will give you a competitive edge in your future professional career.

SCHEDULE

The detailed schedule of the complex Project Work-Thesis process is accessible (in Hungarian) on the Faculty website and, in translation, on the Moodle page dedicated to international students (Section: “Project Work – Thesis”). The timeline contains all the significant dates (e.g. the Prep Course midterm and its retake) and the essential deadlines (submission of PW1, PW2, and Thesis) for all students involved in the various stages of the process in the current academic year.

Students are reminded that 
  • The "Preparatory Course for Project Work" is offered in the Spring Semester
  • "Project Work 1" runs in the Autumn Semester 
  • "Project Work 2" is available in the Spring Semester 
  • The “Thesis” course is offered in both semesters
