Final and project work
The content on this page was translated automatically.
Students from the engineering and natural science fields who want to write their bachelor's and/or master's thesis in the field of structural analysis are cordially invited to contact us.
In the context of a thesis you will get a good insight into current research topics in the field of modern structural analysis and computer-oriented mechanics. The department of structural analysis deals with the development of numerical methods for the modeling and simulation of material and load-bearing structure behavior. For this purpose, novel numerical simulation methods are to be developed. This research field gives rise to a large number of exciting questions that can be answered in the context of a thesis. There is also the possibility of an interdisciplinary thesis, which will then be supervised by an interdisciplinary team.
For the duration of the thesis, we will provide you with a workstation in the new, departmental PC lab or in the workroom of the student employees . During this time, you will not only gain an insight into specific work processes within our department, but also an impression of everyday scientific life at a university.
In case you already want to have a close relation to practical issues in the context of your thesis, we can also offer you a corresponding task. In this case, it may make sense for you to write your thesis in an external company or in an engineering office. However, the scientific supervision remains with the department of structural analysis.
Have we aroused your interest? Then simply contact us.
