BSc and MSc theses

We supervise theses on various topics in IT security, particularly in the area of Usable Security and Privacy.

There is no fixed catalog of offered thesis topics. Instead, the supervisor and student collaboratively search for a suitable topic that aligns with the student's knowledge and interests and the supervisor's areas of expertise. The range of possible topics includes elements from the courses offered, the stated research directions of the staff, as well as completed works.

Remark

Please note that we can supervise significantly fewer theses than the number of requests we receive.
