Final Theses
You are probably reading this page because you are a student of mine who has to write a final thesis. Because writing a thesis follows some specific rules, I listed the main points below:
Preliminary Steps
- work out a topic with me
- register the thesis with the appropriate form
Along the Way
- Make a jour-fix appointment with me, so we can discuss the progress of your thesis on a regular basis.
- Start writing early! If you are into Latex, this is fine. Alternatively you can write in Word.
- Look at other final theses that were conducted under my supervision. If you need hints to example theses – contact me.
- Intermediate presentation (Bachelor/Master/Diplom):
You need to give an intermediate presentation of your thesis. The intermediate presentation should be in the middle of your thesis and present preliminary results.
Finishing the Thesis
- Send your thesis to me about 2 weeks before the deadline. We need that time to fix problems.
- Let your friends proof-read your thesis! You will be unhappy to still find typos in your final thesis. Make sure your thesis is in good quality.
- Make a date for the final presentation (about 2-4 weeks after your submission deadline).
PRACTICE your presentation! Please do not embarass yourself and me by giving a crappy presentation. - Make sure to gather all software and materials (High quality images/ used questionnaires/ data) and provide them, e.g. via a download-link.
