Dear Participant of the Data Science for Management Master,

this document provides some guidelines for structuring your thesis, a crucial component of your academic
journey.

Your final thesis will ordinarily address some specific issues identified during your internship or, in some specific
circumstances, a designated topic. In both cases, your thesis should have a content relevant to your academic
pursuits and will be guided by your supervisor. Evaluation of your thesis will be conducted by the Executive
Master Coordinator and the Master Director, based on both the written report and your subsequent
presentation scheduled for January 2025.

To ensure smooth progress, please note the following key deadlines:

1. By the end of November 2024, kindly email the Executive Master Coordinator to confirm the domain of
your work.
2. Two weeks before your scheduled presentation (exact date to be provided by the end of November),
submit your final report via email to the Executive Master Coordinator.

Your thesis report should adhere to the following specifications:

• Language: English
• Length: between 30-40 pages (including tables and figures)

 Brief analysis of the hosting company (if applicable)
 Internship learning objectives (if applicable)
 Clear definition of the problem under investigation
 Description of the research methods and analysis
 Skills acquired in the internship (if applicable)
Additionally, ensure your thesis conforms to the following formatting guidelines:

• Paper Size: A4
• Printing: One-sided
• Line spacing: 1.5
• Margins: 2.5 centimeters on all sides (top, bottom, left, and right)
