Asker: It's more about "thesis" as a work, not a workplace.

tasks assigned in the workplace


Explanation:
More context required, but to reflect all the words given in the sentence above (e.g. „keliami“ as well as the other words) I recommend the above or "tasks assigned at work" (maybe this is being contrasted to tasks requiring to be done at home?).

OK, in that case it's "issues raised in the thesis".

  -> Oh yes it is. In the context of discussing a dissertation, "issues is a very good translation for „uždaviniai“. Another version could be "propositions" or even "problems" or "questions".

neutral  Gintautas Kaminskas: In the context of discussing a dissertation, "issues" is a better translation for „uždaviniai“ than "aims". The aims of the thesis are set out quite clearly aat the beginning and they are not the same thing as the issues raised/discussed.

  -> Exactly, they are different things. Aims/uždaviniai are set out at the very beginning. This is not the same as issues/problematika.
