You are very welcome to write your bachelor thesis with us. We always have a collection of open topics available but also encourage students to propose own topics, as long as these relate to our research interests. Please see the details below if you want to apply.

Requirements:

We are looking for students who have a particular interest in Operations & Supply Chain Management (OSCM) and participated in several lectures and seminars within this field. You should possess fundamental mathematical and technical knowledge as well as the modeling and programming skills required to tackle advanced topics in OSCM.

  • Curriculum Vitae (incl. finished projects, programming skills/references)

    • Own topic: write a short topic description including a motivation, a description of the research gap, and a possible solution approach.
    • General interest: write a motivation letter that outlines your interests and a favored research field.
  • List of relevant courses attended
  • Preferred time frame (earliest possible start 4 weeks after application)

Theses can only be registered on the 1st of a month and the students need to send their documents for application at least one month in advance.

Guidelines:
