Study unit description:
A 30-credit thesis is an essential part of the Master’s degree. It is a project promoting the health and welfare of
families and its purpose is to develop working life. Innovative action and service models as well as work and
assessment methods are created together with the clients and other partners. Development, research and
assessment of action are combined in the development project and action research approach is appropriate for this.
New learning environments enable the student’s, work community’s and network’s learning process as well as its
development as part of the development projects of the university of applied sciences. Researching and developing
action is essential for the student’s developing competence. The development project is articulated with the
learning process of the whole work community or network. It is possible to carry it out in one’s own work community
or in another work organization such as a project organization, public or private sector or association. When
connected to the working life through networking, the development can arise from the need of citizens or regions
and
their analysis. This way individual learning, structuring new information and new action models are produced
together in the project.
Through the development project of the Master’s degree the student and the whole work community interact actively
and the action for promoting family health and welfare is developed in the real working life. At the same time the
student’s learning and information is transferred to the work community.
The thesis is a learning process, which undergoes the following stages:
- Analysis stage, characterised by familiarisation with the phenomena at hand, by
information gathering and processing, and justification of the topic choice. The topic must be closely linked to
developing the student’s personal competence, work, career or work community, and it must aim to produce new
knowledge for broader use in the field. The topic of the thesis can arise from various sources, including for instance
Laurea’s R&D programmes and different organisations.
