Allocation of Topics
The topics will be introduced in the first meeting.
Each student should choose exactly 3 preferences on doodle after the meeting. The students will receive an invitation for doodle poll via e-mail.
We will try to allocate the topics according to the preferences of the students.
However, since the students will be supervised by advisors mostly 1-on-1, there may be not enough topics offered.
Therefore, the following criterion will be applied by collisions if the topics are not enough:
- Students in higher semesters (at least 2nd semester) are preferred.
- Students with main field “Software Technology and Information Systems” or “Software Engineering” are preferred.
- With equivalent qualifications: randomness
Moreover, we expect you not to drop the seminar after getting a topic or in the middle of the semester, because advisors will spend a lot of time and work on you and their work should be respected.
If you have any questions, please contact us!
