Subject of course

This seminar involves the following tasks:

  1. Submission of a written Master thesis proposal (in English) agreed upon with the thesis supervisor.
  2. Presentation and discussion of the Master thesis proposal (10 min presentation in English + 5 min discussion). Based on the received feedback, students should be able to develop a sound and coherent proposal (Diplomarbeitsanmeldung) of their Master thesis.
  3. Presentation of the most important results of the Master thesis (10 min presentation in English + 5 min discussion). After this presentation, using the received feedback, students should be able to prepare a convincing presentation to be given in their Master thesis defense.

Teaching methods

The seminar will consist of individual meetings between students and their thesis supervisors. 

Further, students will give presentations in the seminar, presenting plans for their Master thesis, and receive written feedback on their submitted thesis proposals. These presentations are meant to train and support students in revising their Master thesis proposals. Based on the received feedback, students should finalize their Master thesis proposal. This final proposal should be submitted to the deans of study (online, following our faculty requirements), as a first step towards completing their Master thesis.

Finally, once the planned Master thesis work is completed, students are expected to present their most important Master thesis results. This presentation should help prepare for the students' upcoming Master thesis defense.
