Bachelor- und Masterarbeitsthemen

Current topics available for undergraduate and graduate theses (BSc and MSc):

The topics listed here are current examples and therefore do not constitute a complete list. For this reason, we strongly recommend contacting the professors directly to discuss potential topics in a one-on-one meeting. Information about the various research groups can be found under People. In addition, the Astrophysics Lab is recommended as preparation for the bachelor’s thesis.
