General

Please note: Due to the change of the head of Chair, we are currently NOT able to supervise new theses!

Our chair supervises bachelor, master and project (WING) theses, depending on the respective “Prüfungsordnung” of the study programs.

General questions and the theses’ process will be discussed in the introduction meeting which takes place on October 12, 2022, 17:30-18:30, via Zoom. The link will be published on StudOn.

In this meeting, the application process, the seminar procedure, how theses are supervised, possible topics and general questions concerning the theses are discussed.

Having participated in one of the Chair’s courses is a requirement in order to write a thesis with us. You can also attend such a class parallel to the work on your thesis, that is in the same semester. Please inform yourself on the Chair’s offerings. As some courses only take place once a year, it is necessary to inform yourself as soon as possible.

Concerning processing time and submission formalities the “Prüfungsordnung” of the respective study programs apply. Please inform yourself about the details. Moreover, please note the formal requirements for the exposé and scientific papers in general.

There are no requirements or restrictions regarding the thesis topics; therefore, it is important that you have already dealt with your personal interests and the research areas of the Chair. Furthermore, we advise you to take a look at the research profiles’ of the Chair’s employees.

Generally speaking, it is possible to write your thesis in cooperation with a company. However, in this case it is most relevant that the identified topic is based on a scientific motivation, which has proved difficult in the past. As most theses, in anyway, show high practical relevance and data collection oftentimes takes place in companies, we strongly suggest to start looking for a suitable topic independent from a company.

For more general information and the procedure of the theses, please visit the following pages and our thesis guidelines. Additional details for WING students can be found  here.
