Master seminars

To ensure that every student can participate in at least one seminar each semester, the sign-up for most of our seminars is centralized. For the summer semester 2023, you need to fill this form until 31 March 2023 if you would like to attend one or more seminars. Seminar slots will be allocated according to preferences and contested slots will be allocated in a lottery. You will be informed about your seminar slots on 3 April. The process of allocating topics is organized by each lecturer individually (after assignment of slots). In case of any questions about the process, please contact counseling-devecon@uni-goettingen.de. The announcement of future seminar allocations will be shared with the students via the economics newsletter.

Bachelor and Master theses

We encourage you to pursue your own research ideas. Suggestions for the topic of your thesis can be requested from Melanie Schmidt.
