  abstract: "Many students (and also supervisors) struggle with their final academic projects (and their supervisions). This struggle has taken away from the great potential of a learning experience the thesis, dissertation, or capstone project has to offer. We invite our readers to learn and reflect our thoughts on how a final academic project can turn into a purposeful journey of scientific entrepreneurs – and not just the final examination to be crossed off before finally being allowed into “the real world”. This book contains reflections on and suggestions how to tackle 50 common challenges that students tend to struggle with when working on the final academic projects of their bachelor's, master's or doctoral programmes. The presented mindsets are reflections by the co-founder and managing director and core faculty members of the twelve-year number-1-ranked (Financial Times Global Master's of Management Ranking) Master in Strategy and International Management at University of St. Gallen. The mindsets are contextualized by the thoughts of 10 academic mentors from around the world and across disciplines. Our thoughts captured in this book do not deal with specific methodology, theory, and ways to cut corners, complete faster and easier. Instead, we focus on academic culture and a purposeful attitude for young, talented, and motivated human beings who seek to apply their academic skills to help solve problems. We instruct our readers to experience the process of their final academic project as a self-directed, productive, and healthy challenge and not a grinding overload"--Publisher's description.
