EA 197 PZ -EA Senior Thesis Seminar

Institution: Pitzer

Description: The EA Senior Thesis Seminar is required for all Pitzer EA majors writing a thesis and is open to any seniors (regardless of campus) who are writing an EA thesis. In the early weeks of the term students will refine and outline their topics. They then devote the remainder of the term to researching primary sources on which their thesis is be based and exploring the secondary literature on their topic. By week 11, students will submit a complete first draft of their thesis. The completed thesis, which typically runs between 40-60 pages (plus notes), is submitted in April. As students work on their own essay, they also serve as peer editors for their classmates. Students sometimes work individually with their advisors, sometimes with their advisor and their peer editor, and sometimes with their entire seminar group
