Erasmus Thesis Project 2023

Are you a bachelor-3 student writing your thesis at Erasmus School of Economics? Join the Erasmus Thesis Project 2023 (ETP) and get help with writing your thesis! In addition, you can hand in your thesis in the end and win up to 200€!

 

What is ETP?

The goal of ETP is to provide additional guidance to bachelor students who are going to write their bachelor thesis at Erasmus School of Economics. To do so, we will organize several workshops/events for you, so that you can get the most out of your thesis:

​

  • Kick-Off: How to write a better thesis (April 20th). Dr. Benoit Crutzen will give a lecture in which he will provide you with tips, point out commonly made mistakes, and discuss how to improve on them. 

​

  • STATA Workshop (May 1st). Two PhD students will host a workshop for students working on an empirical thesis and using STATA. You will be given tips and tricks on how to use STATA. There will also be a Q&A session where students can ask questions about STATA and their own thesis/dataset.

​

  • Feedback Session (Early June). Here, you can present your thesis progress to one or two Professors, who will provide you with feedback and useful insights on how to proceed. Note that it is not required for you to have your final results yet. You can get feedback for your methodology for example! ​Only bachelor 3 students with major in general economics (policy economics, international economics, Economis of Markets and Organizations) can participate.

 

  • ETP Thesis Competition (Deadline July 23rd). Hand in your thesis for a contest for the best theses in economics! The three best theses will be awarded €200, €100, and €50 for respectively 1st, 2nd and 3rd place! The ceremony will be held in September. 

​

With all these activities we hope to provide you all the support you need for writing your thesis and we hope that you’ll stay on track and finish your thesis on time!

 

How to participate 

Participation is free. Please note that anyone is welcome to sign up for the Kick-Off lecture and the STATA workshop, but the Feedback Session and the ETP Thesis Competition is only open for students writing their thesis in the general field of economics (related to the EMO, Policy Economics or International Economics seminars).

 

To participate in the ETP Thesis Competition is very simple. Simply send your thesis in pdf-format to: treasurer@aeclipse.nl. Don’t forget to mention which Major and Seminar you followed and who your thesis supervisor is!

 

The deadline for handing in your thesis is the 23rd of July at 23:59.

 

The winners will receive their prize during a celebration in September (date tbd).
