Kursbeschreibung / -kommentar

This course is a practical course in preparation of your master thesis. It will take place every two weeks with 90 minutes sessions. Our main focus will be on empirical studies. There are mainly six main stages towards a thesis:

Finding a topic
Study design (including generation of hypotheses)
Select and read appropriate related work
Select/Collect data
Analyze data
Report findings

We are going to work through these points together. Each of you will have to decide on a topic to work on individually. In the course, we will share knowledge at all stages to achieve best results.
