Registration and regulations
Registration for the master's thesis is possible if a minimum of 78 credits have been acquired. The master's thesis must be processed within the set 26-week period (6 months). In plausible exceptions, candidates may file an application for an extension of no more than 3 months. Extensions are subject to approval by the Examination Board. All formalities for the master's thesis (registration, submission of the thesis, extension of the submission deadline if necessary) must be clarified with the Study Office FB 11 – Geo, Mrs. Herrmann. This also applies if the master's thesis is to be completed in another department. Suggestions for thesis topics are primarily made by the students. Some working groups are offering proposals for topics (see Moodle course “TropHEE study office).
Courses and consultations on scientific writing, literature research and data mining are offered by the SchreibCenter and the University Library:
