  • The subject takes place mainly in the form of consultations with the thesis supervisor. The concept of the subject is, therefore, significantly flexible, which enables a better understanding and solving of the specific problems of individual students. The common study part (in case it takes place) builds on the following points: - Basic content and formal requirements of the diploma thesis.
  • - The most common problems/errors associated with thesis processing.
  • - Research project - research questions and hypotheses, methods.
  • - Introduction to information sources.
