Preliminary notes

We have noticed that certain points discussed during the initial conversations occasionally resulted in ambiguities. To address this, we would like to explicitly clarify the following:

Procedure

If you wish to write a thesis with us at SecLab, you may choose from one of our topics or propose your own. If you don’t have a topic in mind, please take time to reflect on your specific interests and come prepared with some initial thesis ideas. Requests without a clear topic or ideas will be given lower priority.

Form

You should use LaTeX, Pandoc, or Markdown to create your thesis. However, if you are not familiar with these tools, we recommend using Microsoft Word. Additionally, we advise studying the topic of technical writing before starting your thesis. We recommend the book “Technisches Schreiben: (nicht nur) für Informatiker”.

We recommend our LaTeX template for the creation of your thesis.

Your Bachelor thesis should be between 40 and 60 pages, while a Master thesis should range from 50 to 80 pages.

You may write your thesis in either German or English. However, we generally prefer English if you are sufficiently proficient.

Evaluation

Your thesis will be evaluated as follows:
