Bachelor Thesis in Biology

The Bachelor's thesis is written in small teams. The topics are integrated into the courses offered by the working groups.

The Bachelor's thesis must be completed in one of the two main academic subjects. The prerequisite for admission to the Bachelor's thesis module is that the student has successfully completed module examinations amounting to 45 CP in the corresponding major academic subject.

The maximum processing time is six months, which can be extended by a maximum of one month at the student's request.

Two reviewers must be specified in the application: The first reviewer must be a professor of Biology (see list of examiners). The second reviewer is usually the supervisor of the thesis; here too, only one name on the list of examiners may be entered.

Examiner (pdf)

You can also apply for a Master's place without a Bachelor's thesis grade.

To apply, please complete the following linked form , submit it and send the pdf file to the examiners for entry in the CAS.

Extension of the Bachelor Thesis

The Bachelor's thesis can be extended by a maximum of one month. Please fill out the form linked below to extend the examination deadline, send it off, sign the pdf file and send it to the chair of the examination board by email.
In exceptional cases, in which the student is not responsible for the extension, an extension can be granted in exceptional cases (in the case of prolonged illness with a medical certificate). However, this is only possible in an absolute emergency.
