- All theses have to be written in English (at our chair).
- All theses have to be written in LaTeX (use Template for import in ShareLatex/Overleaf or local writing).
- All prototypes created as part of theses are to be hosted on our servers, thus Linux/backend and programming knowledge is mandatory.
We highly recommend to attend the (Master-)Seminar - Scientific Methods in Information Systems in advance.
Please send all applications with a CV, Grade Report (Leistungsnachweis), and an Application Form (including a detailed motivation). Contract work for companies is not a thesis. Please note that every thesis must make a separate, independent scientific contribution. External topics can be supervised only when there is a close link to the research topics and areas of competence of this research group.
