While some coursework may be necessary, your primary output will be a thesis developed with guidance from academic supervisors. This dissertation must represent a significant, original contribution to its field through novel discoveries, theoretical advancements, or creative reinterpretations of existing knowledge. It should also showcase your ability to independently plan, execute, and conclude research projects.
