Master’s thesis project templates and abstracts at the Theatre Academy
You can download the thesis project templates on this page.
We recommend you save the written component of your master’s thesis project in the thesis project template provided by Uniarts Helsinki’s Theatre Academy. You can also choose not to use the template for saving your work if you want to design the layout yourself.
It is not compulsory to use the thesis template.
Use of the thesis project template in a word processing software
The thesis template is designed to work with the desktop version of Word (Microsoft Office). It does not work with other word processing programs without problems. If you decide to use the thesis template, it is recommended that you write your thesis in Word from scratch. This will also save your time.
The thesis template provides excellent instructions on how to use it. Read them carefully and follow them.
Uniarts Helsinki uses the Microsoft 365 service with an Office package. You can download Microsoft Office as desktop versions on your computer by signing in to the Microsoft 365 service at portal.office.com.
If you need more information about downloading the software, contact the university’s IT support: help@uniarts.fi, tel. 0294 47 2200.
You can also use Microsoft Office software on computers in university IT classes or in the library.
Problems with the thesis template?
If you cannot get the thesis template to work, please make sure you are using the desktop version of Word.
Usually, problems with the thesis template are caused by using some other word processing program or the web version of Word. The thesis template is designed to work with the desktop version of Word. If you do not have the desktop version of Word, you can use it on library computers or in IT classes.
If the problem is not solved, you can send an email to the Sörnäinen Campus Library: lib.sornainen@uniarts.fi.
The library aims to answer questions within a week. Please note that we are not always able to help with last-minute questions before the return of the thesis. The library does not provide technical support for thesis templates processed in software other than the desktop version of Word.
Thesis project abstracts
Below you can find a thesis project abstract that you should include in your written thesis project if you have chosen not to use the thesis project template and want to use your own layout for the text. The first abstract template is for a thesis project in Finnish (PDF) and the second one is for a thesis project in English (DOC).
Include a Finnish abstract in your thesis project if you write the thesis in English and also want to demonstrate your proficiency in Finnish as a first language.
