Final theses
A student project supervised by me should be related to the following topics:
- Computer graphics
- Development of computer games
- Virtual environments
- Visualization
Good to very good programming skills are generally required to carry out work in these areas.
Prerequisites for supervision:
- Project work: Active participation in the compulsory elective module "Computer Graphics" or "Development of Computer Games"
- Bachelor's thesis: Successful completion of the compulsory elective module "Computer Graphics" or "Development of Computer Games" and successful completion of the project work with me
As I am not offering any courses in the Master's programs until further notice, I do not supervise R&D projects and Master's theses!
Suggestions for student projects to be carried out in companies are welcome.
If you are interested, please visit me during my office hours (during the lecture period) or contact me by e-mail .
