Thesis

Theses (diploma or master thesis) are usually done within the framework of research projects. In this way, current research questions from the fields of Information Systems Research, Service-Oriented Computing, Complex Systems & Emergent Behavior, Green Technology and Market Engineering – both purely theoretical in nature, as well as with high practical relevance – are deeply and comprehensively formed and solutions are developed. Right here is the excellent opportunity to further develop teamwork and problem solving skills and with them acquire key qualifications at the intersection of Business Studies and Internal Control Systems.

If you are interested to write the thesis with our chair, please contact bernhard.dumdummymylutz@is.uni-dudummymmyfreiburg.de.

 

Assignment Procedures

The assignment of Bachelor and Master theses is performed on a quarterly basis (1.2., 1.5.,1.8. and 1.11.). An individual start date could be arranged only in exceptional cases. The available places are assigned according to the candidates' qualification. Hence, it’s necessary to add transcript of records and curriculum vitae to your application. Also, please explain your field of interest as well as your background knowledge thereof in a short letter of motivation. Most importantly, don’t forget to relate it to the lectures and seminars of this chair that you took part in. Send your application to bernhard.dumdummymylutz@is.uni-dudummymmyfreiburg.de.. Then, you will receive a confirmation and a notification of the date until which the outcome of your application will be decided.

Repeated applications for theses of the same degree are not possible, i.e each applicant can apply only once for a Bachelor's or Master's thesis. Admissions are still valid even if the work is to be started at a later date.

Thesis in Business

In principle, we also supervise topics that you want to construct in collaboration with or for your identified company. However, such topics should always be considered for each individual case, of whether the topic of your practice partner also complies with scientific requirements, and whether a meaningful cooperation mode between student, company and research chair can be found. If you are planning such work, then we also ask to register with the relevant documents at the department, so that we can check whether we can oversee it.
