This previous knowledge is best demonstrated to us by taking one or more of the lectures our chair offers.
2. Working on it: In case we find a topic, we will meet weekly at the chair. The staff of the chair will partake in the meetings, as will all students that are currently writing their theses. If needed, we will arrange individual meetings in which we can talk more about details of the work.
3. Present it: A final presentation is mandatory in all current study and examination regulations. Depending on the arrangement with your supervisor, this takes place shortly before or after completion of the work in one of our weekly meetings in front of the staff of the chair. In this presentation, you present the results of your work.
