SWISS-CRC - Master thesis

MASTER'S THESIS

The dissertation constitutes a major part of the Master’s program. Students
are encouraged to develop their particular interests and abilities manifested
during the course. It is expected that the topics contribute to research in
the different fields of specialization, with a view to publication in
professional journals or conference proceedings.

Research subjects will cover aspects such as historical, artistic and architectural context, original technique, documentation, conservation materials and techniques and environmental monitoring. Particular emphasis will be laid on interdisciplinary collaboration with materials and conservation scientists, historians of art, sciences and techniques, archaeologists, ethnologists, architects and surveyors, not only in Switzerland but also internationally.
Students will be encouraged to choose topics which require detailed
examination of the original materials in order to understand and transmit
hitherto little studied aspects of manufacturing technique, decay
phenomena, diagnostic and preventive conservation care.

The Master’s thesis requires the student to develop aspects associated with applied research. The dissertation is coached by one of the teachers of the Master’s program and by an external supervisor.

The final assessment of the Master’s thesis will be established by a
commission of experts consisting of members of associate institutions
and external members, renowned in their field and with established
professional and academic qualifications and experience.
