I assume you mean thesis.

I'm well aware of that. But that is not the question.

Depending on discipline, the level of encouragement regarding independant work
varies. It's usually an unavoidable sideeffect. But all the rules
(studieordninger) that I know of allows for purely theoretical work as a thesis
subject, which includes compiling known material as long as there's evidence of
comprehension and independendant treatment of the topic in question.

All the rules of varies disciplines concerning thesis work I checked at the
above link allows for theoretical work, which can be a compendium of already
published work. That's a fact.
