We welcome Bachelor and Master students to write their thesis at the Institute for Marketing and Customer Insight. We generally offer students a choice from a variety of topics for bachelor’s or master’s theses.
Bachelor & Master Theses
We offer a range of exciting marketing topics for bachelor's and master's theses and provide complete supervision, from the choosing of a subject through to submission.
Process
Students can find the topics in the list below. If we do not have a suitable topic advertised, a proactive application is possible. Please familiarize yourself with the research areas of our professors and PhD students and address your proposal (see questions below) to the person who best fits your research project. Supervision of topics from outside this list is possible only to a limited extent.
Before you begin, please make sure that you fulfill the following requirements:
- Make sure you know and comply with the rules and regulations of the Dean’s Advisory Office concerning your specific program.
- Be ready to start working on your thesis (more than 50% share of work time per week) within the next three months.
- Be willing and actively plan to complete your thesis within nine months after you’ve started your work.
If you fulfill the above requirements, we invite you to continue with the application process.
