Comparative Literature II - LIT302
Animal studies is among the budding fields that is attracting a lot of attention over the past two decades.

This unit aims to enhance the students’ knowledge and skills needed to conduct a research paper of substantial depth and length under the supervision of a faculty member, whether it is theoretical based on literature review and analysis, or empirical based on econometric, statistical or mathematical analysis.
Topics selected by students for their graduation projects are closely linked to sustainable development goals, especially SDG8 related to decent work and economic growth, as they create models where they try to determine the main catalysts for growth in certain countries or regions. Students also choose topics related to reducing poverty (SDG1) or inequality (SDG10), quality education (SDG4) gender equality (SDG5) and many other SDGs.Graduation Project I (ECO420I)
