All students at CBS write a master’s thesis at the end of their master’s programme. The thesis is a major paper, where the students choose the topic of the thesis and formulate the research question themselves. In the thesis, the students must apply scientific theories and methods. The work with the master’s thesis is fixed to 30 ECTS, which corresponds to half a year’s full-time study.

At CBS, it is our objective that the students should experience this last part of their studies as an enriching period, and that CBS should help the students to avoid unnecessary extension of their studies. Vibeke Ankersborg, Master’s Thesis Counsellor, works to achieve this objective.

The Master's Thesis Counsellor
The Master’s Thesis Counsellor acts as an adviser to the master’s programmes and initiates new activities within the field of thesis writing. The Master’s Thesis Counsellor participates in the study programmes’ master's thesis seminars for new thesis students, and she is the person behind products and publications that are aimed at supervisors and master’s thesis students. These publications can be downloaded from e-campus - study - Master's thesis counselling.

All master’s thesis students at CBS have the opportunity of receiving individual guidance from the Master’s Thesis Counsellor Vibeke Ankersborg if they wish to discuss issues related to life as a master’s thesis student. CBS students can read more about the Master’s Thesis Counsellor on e-campus under Study and Master’s Thesis Counselling.
