thesis project

Major research undertaking

A thesis project is a substantial piece of original research or creative work completed as the capstone requirement for an academic degree, typically at the master's or doctoral level.

The project demonstrates a student's ability to conduct independent scholarship in their field: She spent two years on her thesis project about urban food deserts.

Unlike coursework, a thesis project requires defending your work before a faculty committee.
