General Information on Writing a Student Theses at IVV

An essential part of the philosophy of the Institute of Transport Planning and Traffic Engineering is to interlink current research activities and the teaching programme as closely as possible.

An application is required for a student research project at IVV.

Participation in the seminar „Wissenschaftliches Arbeiten“ is recommended for all students who want to write a thesis of any kind at the Institutes of Transport. It is certainly possible and advisable to take part earlier in the course of study (e. g. for Master´s students from the 1st semester onwards). Bachelor students are recommended to attend the seminar before writing their Bachelor thesis.

Topic Selection

On one hand, there is the possibility to work on a topic that arises from the current research activities or dissertation projects of our staff.

Currently, within the scope of the scAInce project, various final theses are available. We also offer thesis on other topics (see “scAInce Lab” and “Other projects”). If you are interested in any of the subject areas listed below, please contact the supervisor directly. You will find his/her contact detail on his/her personal page.
