Master thesis
The Master's thesis can only be registered if 60 CP have been obtained and all additional courses that were given at the time of admission have been passed. For all students who
start their Master's studies from the winter semester 2020/2021 onwards, the module "Scientific Integrity" must also be passed before the Master's thesis can be registered.
The processing time for the Master's thesis is 6 months during the course of study. The scope of the written draft should not exceed 80 pages without Annexes.
In general, the Master's thesis can be written at any chair that holds a teaching position in the degree program Transport Engineering and Mobility. If you are interested and meet
the requirements, please contact the chairs directly.
Registration and recognition
After a topic has been coordinated with a chair, the Master's thesis must be registered at the central examination office. For this purpose, the Central Examination Office fills out a control sheet, which is then handed over to the supervising chair.The processing time begins with the signature of the professor from the supervising chair on the control sheet and the submission of the exact proposal for the Master's thesis.
The Master's thesis must be delivered to the Central Examination Office digitally via RWTH Online in due time. After the submission, a date will be set within the next eight weeks for the oral presentation of the results to be held at the chair.
