In Thesis II, students will develop and evaluate the thesis foundations through a series of steps as discussed with their thesis advisors and in the thesis seminar. At this stage, the  foundational aspects should be apparent and the research components, making room for the actual development of the thesis project. For example, if the thesis project is about writing a text, Thesis II will be focused on writing the text.

The thesis project concludes with the “defence” of the research outcomes in the form of one artifact like an essay, exhibit, short documentary, series of analytical models and drawings like
maps, series of design explorations through drawings and models. Unless the thesis project is an essay or a text, students will submit a booklet documenting the thesis project, including the work done in Thesis I at the end of the term.
