At the Chair of Management of Renewable Energies, we are currently experiencing high levels of student interest in writing Master or Bachelor theses. While we are excited about the interest on these important topics, our capacity prevents us from satisfying every request for supervision. We will selectively consider new requests if they have a close link to our team’s research focus, and if the candidate can demonstrate dedication and commitment to investigating a novel topic related to managing renewable energy and climate solutions. All else being equal, students who have already familiarized themselves with the topic in one of our courses will be given priority in the application process.

Do you think you have what we are looking for? Then please take a moment to check the website of the eligible supervisors in our team:

• Dr. Nina Schneider
• Dr. Pascal Vuichard
• Prof. Dr. Moritz Loock
• Prof. Dr. Rolf Wüstenhagen

Once you have identified the lecturer who is the best match with your research interest, contact her/him with a short CV, motivation letter, grade transcript and short description of 1-2 proposed thesis topic(s).
