Notes

This list may not be complete or up-to-date. Therefore, it may be worthwhile to contact the staff of the Geosensor Systems Chair directly for further current topic suggestions. (Almost) all topics can be designed in such a way that they are suitable for a bachelor or master thesis. Further topics can be given out at any time after consultation. Own topics (e.g. in combination with an internship at a company) can also be proposed and discussed with the staff members.
