Assignment - report
The assessment is based on the writing of a scientific article of 5 pages max. excluding bibliography and appendices, based on the content of one of the research projects carried out as part of the Research Accompaniment Seminar (SEMI0731-1) in Master 1.
The article must be written by a group of 4 people (the same group or a new group as the one formed during the Research Accompaniment Seminar (SEMI0731-1) in Master 1). For new students: possibility of writing an article on a theme encountered in their workplace or internship.
The article must include:
1. Abstract/résumé
2. Introduction/Presentation of the subject
3. Contextualization
4. Analytical framework/Literature review
5. Methodology
6. Layout and analysis
7. Discussion and conclusion
8. Bibliography
9. Appendices
In the second session, the assessment will focus solely on the writing of the article. The article may be written individually or as part of a group. However, if the student decides to write the scientific article alone, it must address a new research question. He/she must notify the teachers by e-mail before July 1, 2025, giving reasons for his/her decision. Bonus points will no longer be counted. Submission procedures will be identical to those for the first session, and the paper must be submitted on the Ultra platform (formerly eCampus) by August 16, 2025, 11:59 p.m. at the latest.
