Examination Office

The topic of the bachelor thesis can come from the field of business informatics, computer science or economics. The processing time is 3 months 8'(in the old PO version 3 and 4 still 4 months). Please note that you have to be enrolled while you are working on your Bachelor thesis!

You can register for the bachelor thesis as soon as you have earned 120 credit points in the bachelor's degree program in Business Information Systems and have submitted them to the examination office. You can find out whether you have achieved the required 120 credit points at the Examinations Office or check for yourself at https://vorlesungen.tu-bs.de. If you submit the application for the Bachelor thesis without the required preliminary work, the application will not be recognized. Furthermore, the bachelor thesis can NOT be re-registered with the same title.

First of all, you will need to find a supervisor and agree on a topic for your bachelor thesis. Please note: If you want to write your Bachelor thesis externally, it is also necessary to find a supervisor at TU Braunschweig first! To register your final thesis you have to use the form "Anmeldung einer Abschlussarbeit im Studiengang Wirtschaftsinformatik", which can be found in the Examination Office and also here. The completed registration form, signed by you and the examiner, is sent by the Institute to the Examination Office and the work is thus registered. From the date indicated on the application, the processing time of four months starts, the submission date is accordingly exactly three months after the application date (example: application date: 18.11.2009 -> submission date: 18.02.2010).

As of now, final theses (bachelor's or master's thesis) are uploaded in TUConnect. Submission by e-mail or on data carriers is no longer required. The date of submission is the upload date of the submission to the examination office.

Bound copies no longer have to be submitted to the Examinations Office. Examiners can request the submission of a printed copy within 5 days of the upload date. In that case, the submission will take place at the examiners' office.

There is an automatic plagiarism check.

You can only upload one PDF document (the declaration of originality must be included). To do this, convert your work as a PDF document directly from your word document or use the print function. Please do not scan!

For data protection reasons, you may remove the personal data "last name", "first name" and "matriculation number" from the electronic version of your thesis before uploading it.

The maximum file size is 150 MB. If necessary, please reduce the resolution of images/drawings in the file.

If the final thesis is your last exam and you would like to exmatriculate as soon as possible, you should in any case be sure that you have passed all exams and study achievements including the final thesis. If your final thesis has not yet been graded, but the performance is in any case graded as passed, first and second examiners can issue you a "4.0 certificate", which confirms that your final thesis has been passed with at least "sufficient". We strongly advise against de-registration before you have made sure that you have passed all examinations and study achievements!
