This seminar in the field of behavioural ecology offers students working on their Master's thesis the opportunity to present and discuss their projects, either during the proposal phase or before the defence (or both), to receive feedback. The goal is to conceptually and methodologically check and improve ongoing studies that will result in an MSc thesis. YOU MUST ALREADY HAVE YOUR THESIS TOPIC AND SUPERVISORY TEAM sorted to attend this seminar.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
