Final Thesis
We accept both empirical and conceptual theses. Please note that the amount of work will be approximately the same for both. Even if you plan to write your thesis with a company it is necessary to have a sound theoretical basis and you must fulfill the requirements of a scientific thesis. There are two ways to write your final thesis: Self-selected topics or topics directly related to our research projects. Either way the thesis should be related to our research field! To apply for a final thesis please provide a short description of your research idea, your CV and transcript of records to silke.heindl@tum.de
In case we have more applications than capacity, we will select based on (1) successful completion of the seminar in Innovation and Technology Management (TIM seminar at TUMCS), (2) successful completion of courses qualifying you to conduct academic work, and (3) motivation and further qualifications.
