General information about bachelor and master theses

Jun 23, 2020

I am available to act as advisor for theses related to digital platforms, the strategic implications of digital transformation, organizational design, and the strategic management of innovation. On these topics, I supervise both qualitative and quantitative studies, and literature reviews.

Look at the Topics for initial ideas that could match with my research interests.

Code of conducts

  • Please, contact me one month in advance respect to your expected registration date. We will use this time window to brainstorm a suitable topic and look for opportunities to collect data.
  • I am expecting to see you and receive your updates regularly. It is your responsibility to get in touch with me and schedule the appointments.
  • I believe in collaborative and open research and I will ask you to share your codes and analysis results via Dropbox or a collaborative folder.
  • If you decide to work with quantitative data, I recommend using either R (open-source) or STATA (license-based). If you opt for STATA, you should have free access through the library computers. Otherwise, you can buy a discounted student license.
  • Coding can be messy while you progress in your analysis. I recommend writing a final script to summarize the blocks of your code at the end of your thesis. Please, include a readme.file if the code needs further specification.

Formal details

  • At ISTO, we register the incoming theses on the first Monday of each month.
  • Once agreed on a topic, I will send you the registration form.
  • Visit the ISTO institutional webpage for the formal requirements (length, page style, etc.).
