Student research projects, bachelor and master theses

We offer student research projects, bachelor and master theses in our research projects.

The best way is to read through the research projects in our 3 groups and to contact the respective team members directly if you are interested in doing a theses in a specific project. Sometimes they have a thesis to offer which is not listed here, yet. Alternatively, feel free to make an appointment with Simon Hoffmann or Jonathan Krauß to learn more about thesis projects at IBT in general.

Hiwi Jobs & where to find them.

A Hiwi position at the IBT gives you an insight into scientific work, may prepare you for a thesis, and you get some money for it.
