Theses and Student Jobs
You can work as a student assistant at our chair or write a bachelor or master thesis. By working with us, you become a member of one of our research teams. It is therefore important for us to provide optimal support throughout your entire work at the chair.
If there is currently no explicit thesis topic advertised that matches your interests, you can take a look at our research areas or browse through the running research projects and follow the respective links to the CRIS portal to directly contact the academic staff / doctoral students that work on the respective project.
Note that the theses can be written in either English or German.
