Course content

With the Master's thesis, students should demonstrate not only the success of their professional training but also the ability to independently and comprehensively work on a specialist topic with a certain degree of novelty on a scientific basis in the sense of the student's own work. By preparing and giving a short presentation as part of an interim presentation conference, students develop their ability to change perspectives and to reflect on their own Master's thesis. At the same time, they strengthen key communicative and adaptive skills by learning to convey complex content in a way that is appropriate and concise for the target audience and to react flexibly to feedback and questions.
