Forms of work at the seminar
Research Seminar work is formed at the intersection of two cycles of activity:
- the cycle of the Master's Thesis preparation;
- the cycle of organizational forms of the research seminar.
From the very beginning, the research seminar is focused on the preparation of the Master's Thesis. The initial important stage of the process of its preparation in the first year of training is the writing of the Coursework.
The Master's Thesis preparation cycle is the main one; the cycle of organizational forms of the research seminar is adjusted to it, which is essentially a way of organizing a public discussion of each stage of the single research cycle.
