Bachelor theses & Master theses
In our group you can write a bachelor’s or master’s thesis (based on field trials, data analyses, empirical studies or literature studies).
You are also welcome to suggest your own topics, but these should be aligned with us individually. We are looking for committed students to support us in selected research projects, which can be very well combined with the preparation of a thesis. If you are interested in doing a thesis in our working group, please contact us!
Thesis can be written in either German or English.
