Topic

The basis of the diploma thesis is laboratory- and/or literature search-based research. Therefore the students have to attend the selected laboratory to perform the work previously agreed upon with the supervisor.

1. The student needs to find a project in which he/she is interested in. The student can search for teachers, projects (e.g. TDK projects), and research interests of the potential supervisors. Having talked to the teacher/prospective supervisor, he/she has to agree to accept the student as his/her project student and act as the student's supervisor.

2. The student can choose a project freely, as long as he/she can find a supervisor.

3. The project does not have to be final. If it turns out not to cover the student's interest, the student can find another project.

4. The student must complete an official form signed by the supervisor and clearly state the project title to finalize the initiation of the project.

5. The student can also choose research topics from topics of later semesters.
