I was reading through a jobs guide for entry into a historian uni course, and it says that you have to write a thesis??? What exactly is a thesis???

Is a research topic, you develop a research question where a pressing issue in the industry (history for you) needs investigation.

consists of a literature review, then a survey or the like to test your question.

generally a thesis at undergraduate level is in the order of 10,000-20,000 words.
