Abstract

Independent and scientific thesis on a monographic or thematic topic within the scope of the history of art and architecture.

Objective

The objective is to write an independent thesis on a monographic or thematic topic within the scope of the history of art and architecture. The focus is to thus exemplify a comprehensive view of the approach and methods towards the modern history of art.

Content

The objective of the elective subject is, in coordination with the advisors, to work autonomously on a subject from the history of architecture. Beside own ideas also positions of research should be considered; we set value on a correct scientific form as well as a clear language. The work should cover 36'000 signs as well as image material if needed. At the beginning and before delivery of the work an elaborate discussion will take place.
