The following criteria apply: The option is most suited for students who see pursuing an MA (and potentially a PhD) as a key element of their plans. The course provides a learning experience similar to undertaking graduate studies. A minimum GPA of 3.3 (B+) or higher is required for consideration. Students must have a core theme or research question that they want to work on: i.e. a subject matter that they are passionate about and are keen to research and write on at length! Students must have a faculty member in mind to supervise and that faculty member must agree to supervise. Please note, accepting a 501 student is entirely the prerogative of the faculty member and they are under no obligation to do so. Most faculty members have a large amount of graduate supervision, so accepting DEVS 501 students is not always possible due to time constraints. Many faculty will only agree to supervise a 501 student when they receive a request from an exceptional student who is passionate about a subject area directly related to the faculty member抯 own expertise. Should you meet these criteria and have a suitable faculty member willing to supervise a 501 thesis, please note the following: The course is a full year course, meaning that it is a heavy workload (equivalent to the reading and writing involved in two 49X seminars). This course is not an easy option! You will need strong powers of self-organisation and self-discipline because writing a thesis is a difficult endeavour that demands a lot of time, energy and determination. The challenge of writing a thesis must seem exciting, rather than daunting to you! It抯 not for everyone. The topic of a DEVS 501 Honours Thesis can be on any key question related to the broad field of development studies. You should have a clear idea of what you want to work on before you approach a faculty member (and do make sure that they are suitable in terms of their expertise). Should they agree to supervise you, there is an official DEVS 501 form available from the main office located in Macintosh-Corry Hall, Room B411 or by emailing the Undergraduate Assistant at devs.student@queensu.ca. You need to have both yourself and the supervisor sign it to be enrolled. This must be provided to the DEVS Undergraduate Assistant by the end of June prior to course registration. Please consider full-time faculty as supervisors rather than adjunct faculty because the contracts of the latter normally do not typically include provisions for supervision. If in doubt, you can check with the Undergraduate Chair. Grading of the Thesis The thesis will be evaluated by the thesis supervisor and a second reader. A grade will be determined on the originality of the topic, depth of research, quality of argument, and analytical complexity, as well as presentation and style. Both assessors will assign a percentage grade to the thesis based on these factors and the meeting of all requirements and deadlines as outlined below. The final thesis grade will be the average of the two assigned percentages (rounding up if it is a fraction). If the two assessors assign grades with a difference of more than eight percent (8%) then the Undergraduate Chair will assess the thesis and finalise the grade. Thesis Timeline and Deadlines Once enrolled, the DEVS 501 student must meet the following deadlines towards the completion of the course. These are overseen by both their supervisor and the Undergraduate Chair. End of June: DEVS 501 enrolment form signed by both student and supervisor and approved by Undergraduate Chair. A completed form and email approval will be accepted if all parties (student, supervisor, undergraduate chair) are copied on the email submitted to HYPERLINK "mailto:devs.student@queensu.ca" devs.student@queensu.ca By end of October: a full proposal for your thesis submitted to both supervisor and Undergraduate Chair (template included below). By December 1st: submission to General Research Ethics Board if conducting research involving human subjects. By end of January: student will confirm their second reader with their supervisor and notify the Undergraduate Chair. In mid-March: all DEVS 501 students will each present a 12-minute summary of their research projects and preliminary findings at an event hosted by the Undergraduate Chair. A suitable date and location will be found in advance. By the last day of classes in April: all DEVS 501 students must submit their final copy to their supervisor and second reader. Any failure to comply with these requirements and deadlines will be factored into the final grade of the DEVS 501 thesis. Please ensure that any extensions are confirmed in advance in writing with both supervisor and Undergraduate Chair. Structure of DEVS 501 Theses The thesis should have the following structure: Title Page (the format of the title page is appended as the final page of this document) Abstract: A summary of the major findings of the thesis in 300 words or less. The abstract must be able to be read separate from the thesis so there should be no footnotes or references to other literature or to the body of the thesis in the abstract. Acknowledgments (optional) Table of Contents: List the page numbers of each section from the Abstract to the Appendices. The title of each chapter and of each of the sub-headings of the chapters should be listed. Page numbers should begin with the Abstract as p. 1 and continue to the last page of the Appendices. Page numbers should appear in the upper right of each page. Body of the thesis: Should consist of several chapters setting out the study. Normally, the first chapter will be an introduction that sets the stage for the work. It may include the scope of the study, the objectives, the research methods, the analytical framework and the organization of the chapters to follow, etc. The second chapter may review understanding of the subject based on existing literature and scholarly sources. The third chapter may present the results of the research and the fourth chapter the interpretation of the results (or the third chapter may present both results and interpretation). The final chapter may present briefly the conclusions of the research. The precise structure of any individual thesis, however, would be agreed with the supervisor. Each chapter begins with the chapter number and title at the top of a new page. Subtitles may be used to separate components of the chapter. The chapters should be written in a scholarly style acceptable within the field of development studies. Students are encouraged to select a manual of style used in professional publications and to consult with their supervisor on this matter before writing the thesis. Figures (maps, graphs, photographs, drawings, etc.) should be included in the text of each chapter near where they are referred to in the text. Figures should be numbered sequentially through the thesis (e.g. Figure 1, Figure 2, etc.), or in each chapter (Figure 1.1, Figure 1.2, .... Figure 2.1, Figure 2.2 ... etc.). Each figure must have a caption below or beside it (e.g. Figure 6: Income Distribution by Region). Figures must be referred to in the text (e.g. �...as shown in Figure 6.�) and must be cited in order (e.g. Figure 5 is cited before Figure 6). Figures from other sources should be acknowledged in the caption and should be renumbered in the thesis. Figures must be neat and legible. Tables (lists of data or text) should be treated in the same way. The table should have a title above it (e.g. 慣able 4: Population Growth in Freetown�). Each column of data or information must have a title, and foot notes (if any) should be placed below the table. The title, column titles, body, and footnotes should be separated by horizontal lines. Length of the body: The body of the thesis should be a minimum of 55 and maximum of 75 double- spaced pages, at 12 cpi. References (or References and Notes) to the literature must be listed under a separate heading following the last chapter and must be in an acceptable scholarly format approved by the supervisor. Each reference must be cited in the text and each citation must appear in the list of references. References and notes may be single-spaced. Appendices (if any) should include information, data, or figures important to the thesis but which are not central to the presentation. They should be referred to in the text. If there is more than one Appendix, they should be numbered sequentially. They may be presented on paper or on digital media. The latter should be labelled and enclosed in an envelope attached to inside of the back cover of the thesis. DEVS 501 Proposal Template The proposal is due at the end of October and should be two to four pages long, with a preliminary bibliography included. The precise content of the proposal should be agreed with the supervisor who will have their own requirements. That said, at a minimum the first proposal should contain the following five elements: A brief outline of the proposed topic: What are you interested in studying and why is it important? Are there specific debates you are looking to intervene in or contribute to? Is there a specific empirical or conceptual gap that you are looking to address? The key research question What is it about this topic that you want to answer specifically? How does it shape into a clear research question? Why is answering this specific question important? How will it add to academia or other forms of knowledge mobilisation? How are you going to answer this question? What do you need to do to be able to answer your research question? Are there smaller sub-questions that you will need to answer first? What analytical perspective(s) do you plan to use? Which academic author(s) are you drawing on to help shape your approach? What is your research methodology? What sources are you expecting to use? Is this going to be based on secondary literature? Is there any primary literature (e.g. government reports, NGO reports, etc.) that you will use? Do you already have access to these or are some still to be located / accessed? Do you plan on doing any interviews or fieldwork to supplement your other sources? If so, you will need to submit your project for approval by the General Research Ethics Board. Please consult your supervisor about this process and be warned that it can take several months to gain final approval. Layout of the MRP / potential chapter titles In provisional terms, how do you envisage your MRP looking in terms of sections / chapters?
