Suggestions for thesis topics, Department of Ethnology, 2013.
Ethnography of teaching
Related to a research project on research-based teaching or rather teaching-based research as performed
in the diverse faculty and departments of this university, we suggest this for as a topic for a thesis: how do
different forms of teaching and research traditions add purpose to the everyday life of students? We
advertise for thesis writers who will look into how university structures, learning environment, and
teaching relates to the everyday life of students.
