Spanish term or phrase: tesis de licenciatura
Buenos días,

Espero que puedan ayudarme con un término al inglés: “tesis de licenciatura”. En Perú cuando se termina la universidad se debe sustentar una tesis para obtener la licenciatura u obtener el grado de licenciado. He encontrado: “thesis of degree”, pero no estoy seguro. Muchas gracias:

“Dicha labor influenció mucho en mi interés por las organizaciones, que continuó en mi tesis de licenciatura, donde analicé las dinámicas de las agrupaciones de artistas en las corrientes literarias en nuestro país. Concluir la tesis me permitió desarrollar mis habilidades desarrolladas durante el pregrado.

the problem I see with "undergaduate thesis or dissertation" is that it is ambiguous as to WHEN thesis is written, i.e. it could be submitted ANYTIME during the 3./4year degree course, whereas in this context this is the final element of the degree hence BA Thesis (my preference here) or Dissertation (which I associate more with a MA)
