Master's Thesis

Lehrform Wissenschaftl. Arbeit/Sem
Lernziele

 

The Master's thesis allows the student to demonstrate his or her ability to independently handle a scientific project from the area of process engineering within a limited period of time by means of scientific methods.

The final thesis is defended by the student with an oral presentation of about 15 minutes, plus a discussion of about 10 minutes. The discussion constitutes a final oral examination.

Lernziele

The students know important trends and ethical issues in biotechnology.

They understand the context of engineering and technology, economy, ecology and ethics, and accept it as a foundation of their future professional conduct. They will gain an understanding of variation and uncertainty and how it affects the performance of business, commerce and manufacturing. They will understand the fundamentals of a learning organization, what influences the way people behave, and appreciate how all of this fits into the systemic whole.
