"A thesis is a long-written work where students demonstrate their capacity to identify a topic of their interest, explore it in-depth, and produce original research on their own with the guidance of a supervisor. It is perhaps the first and last opportunity to experiment and learn to carry out these kinds of academic papers and its development may be meaningful for their professional development; however, it is no longer the preferred method to graduate. Even though there are studies on the field, most of them are focused on the development of graduate theses and in other study areas different from English teaching. So, this thesis will explain why Students face challenges to engage with a thesis development based on Critical thinking analysis at the Licenciatura en la Enseñaza del Inglés (LEI) at BUAP. This thesis is a qualitative study where the data will be collected by interviewing ten students of LEI to get their beliefs to analyze the factors that influence their decision to elaborate a thesis as a graduation modality. Results will be analyzed using critical thinking to distinguish factors that contribute to the students’ performance in conducting academic research ".
