Final theses

Assignment of theses

Theses are assigned centrally at the professorship. We supervise Bachelor's and Master's theses. If you would like to write your thesis with us, please indicate our professorship as your first priority in the central application procedure.

Organizational procedure

At the beginning of the semester

If you have been offered a place with us, we will inform you by email and invite you to a Stud.IP course. At the beginning of the semester there will be a kick-off meeting in which we will explain all the essential procedures to you. If you have your own thematic wishes and ideas, please contact us immediately after you have been accepted. Otherwise, we will present you with suggested topics at the kick-off event. You will then enter the phase of preparing your synopsis, which you will discuss intensively with your supervisor at the chair. You will be registered after the exposé has been completed.

During the semester

After registering, you and your supervisor will discuss the progress of your thesis on an ongoing basis.

After submission

We will offer you a presentation date so that you can present the contents of your thesis again.

Important note

You write your thesis in the semester in which you register. If you would like to write your thesis in a later semester, please do not register until the following semester!

Our main topics

Sofia Schöbel's research topics are in the field of persuasive system design as well as in the context of gamification and digital nudging. One focus is on the motivating and engaging design of generative artificial intelligence and related interaction models. Another focus is on the design of digital AI-based immersive agents that can be designed and used via virtual reality glasses. The area of digital hybrid work is also a focus of research.

Jonas Kaul's research focuses on the field of generative artificial intelligence. One focus is on investigating how individual and technical factors influence attitude formation and attitude change in the interaction between humans and artificial intelligence.

Kira Prettin's research topics are related to the third-party funded project "Emotionslotse" (link to project description) and are, for example, in the field of persuasive system design as well as in the context of gamification and digital nudging. One focus here is on the motivating and engaging design of generative artificial intelligence and related interaction models

Melanie Schmidt examines how organizations, work processes and collaboration are being changed by the integration of artificial intelligence. The focus is particularly on start-ups and small and medium-sized enterprises. Topics at the interface of human-AI collaboration, AI-supported decision-making processes, new work roles and the practical embedding of AI in organizational processes are suitable for theses, predominantly using qualitative-empirical methods.
