Thesis in a Company

It is possible to write your master thesis in cooporation with a company.

From the winter semester 2024/25 onwards your first examiner must belong to one of the following groups in the faculty 09: a professor or an associate professor (Privatdozent) or a permanently employed academic staff member with a doctorate or a junior group leader with a doctorate (Nachwuchsgruppenleiter).

The second examiner can be a person of the company with academic qualification, who will then need a teaching assignment. This has to be requested by the first examiner. The whole registration process for the master thesis is the same as with two examiners of the university and has to be submitted to the examination office.

In case you want to complete your internship (MP-196) and the Master Thesis in the same company, this has to take place in succession. It is not possible to complete an internship (MP-196) and at the same time write and register the master thesis in the same company.
