The Bachelor’s Thesis is a scientific, application- and problem-oriented written work that relates to the subject areas and specializations of the bachelor’s program. Students independently develop a research question and address it using scientific methods and properly cited sources. Within the framework of the bachelor thesis seminar, students receive guidance and support during the preparation of their thesis. The selection of the topic, the structuring of the work, and the scheduling are carried out independently, particularly through critical engagement with possible research questions and hypotheses. Supervisors provide assistance, support methodological issues, and discuss aspects of scientific methodology, formal presentation, and time management.
