The seminar introduces the basic principles of academic writing. How to define the theme of theses (ETDs), what the methodology will be; how to formulate hypotheses; how the hypotheses is proved or disproved; how everything is neatly summed up at the end. In addition, the course defines the initial searches and introduces the state of research in the field. Further the course discusses the basic genres of a scientific text. The seminar serves as an introduction to the original requirements for theses, that is, the principles of scientific work emanating from the scientific method. The course brings the students to the basic topics of the philosophy of science in relevant historical excursions, as well as the divisions of humanities, natural or social. Aside from theoretical findings the course provides empirical knowledge of the authors of theses as a purely practical or psychological in nature. Part of the course are homework assignments (often writing).
