Theses Offers

In general, I am always looking for motivated students to write their Bachelor or Master thesis with us. At the moment, I am looking for students interested in topics in the area of IoT and blockchains. If you are not interested in these specific topics, but nevertheless you want to write your thesis with me, simply write me a mail.

In general, I strongly recommend that you ask at least 2-3 months before you want to start with your thesis if supervision is actually possible. Please note that I do NOT supervise topics defined by companies. If this is an option for you, please check first the according guidelines of the Faculty of Informatics.
