Abstract: The requirement for completion of post-graduate, master and doctoral study programs is producing an individual thesis. For many students, this is the first step into research. The research question in this article, therefore, is how students in their master thesis define the paradigms. We found that in the sample the quantitative paradigm is prevailing, while the mixed methods design is present, yet both of them are seldom defined.
