Final thesis at the Professorship of Economics
Update January 2026: Due to restructuring at our department, we are currently unable to supervise any further theses.
At our professorship, Bachelor and Master theses are supervised. We accept both empirical and conceptual topics, but please note that the workload for both will be about the same. Even if you want to focus on a topic that is particularly relevant to practice, your thesis must have a solid theoretical foundation and meet the requirements of a scientific paper. Please note accordingly that you cannot submit a purely practical topic, e.g. a business plan, as a thesis.
The main focus of our professorship is on Behavioral & Experimental Economics, but we also cover general economic topics.
