The MA seminars are held in the 3-semester cycle, each 30 hours (in total 90 hours) starting from semester II to semester IV. Each semester ends with a grade which is based on the assessment of progress in research and simultaneously on assessment of the learning outcomes.

The basic aim of the MA seminars is to inspire students' scientific interests, to engage them into research on a graduate level, and to develop their research skills. In particular, these aims serve to realization of the adopted learning outcomes for given field of study, namely: knowledge, skills and social competences.

During the course students will enhance their skills at all levels of the thesis-writing process, devising a topic, doing preliminary research, developing and evaluating arguments, revising and re-writing early drafts, and preparing a final thesis
