The master's thesis is typically related to one of the four subject areas that constitute the core of the curriculum (i.e., Business Process Management, Data and Application Security, Data Science, and Digital Innovation).
Teaching Method
- The thesis is assessed by a faculty member from the Institute of Information Systems (professor, assistant professor, visiting professor or senior lecturer).The thesis is presented and defended in an oral examination. The examination committee is composed of the Academic Director, another faculty member, and an external expert appointed by the Vice-Rector for Teaching.The time for producing the completed thesis is defined on the thesis proposal (“exposé”) and may not exceed 22 weeks.
Learning Results
- After successful submission of the master's thesis, students will have demonstrated their ability to plan, execute and manage research projects autonomously.

- A minimum of 60 ECTS must be achieved before a student may register for this module.The student must have passed the Business Statistics course before registering for the course.A research proposal (“exposé”) signed by the supervisor and the academic director must be submitted to the study administration prior to the student`s registration for the module. The exposé submission deadline is the same as for the Module Research Seminar. If the exposé is written for the Research Seminar module, it is forwarded to the study administration by the Research Seminar module coordinator.
