Guidelines for Academic Papers (seminar papers, bachelor and master dissertations etc.)

Bachelor:

At the professorship, the following persons supervise Bachelor theses on the respective broad subject areas:

• Professor Dr Bernhard Stahl (International Politics in general)

The prerequisite for the supervision of a Bachelor thesis is the attendance of at least one seminar of the professorship and the attendance of both lectures (Introduction to the Study of International Politics & Selected Chapters of International Politics).

Master:

At the professorship, the following persons supervise Master theses on the respective broad subject areas:

• Professor Dr Bernhard Stahl (International Politics in general)

Prerequisite for the supervision of a Master thesis is the successful completion of at least one Master's class (term paper) at the professorship.

Topics:

Sometimes, in order to find a Bachelor or Master thesis topic, it helps to take a look at previous topics. Here is an overview of topics from the year 2017.

In principle, no Schein-certificates will be issued by the professorship for non-credited academic efforts, as these can be listed as additional achievements in the HISQIS statement. In documented exceptional cases (e.g. necessary ECTS for a Master's program), this basic rule can be deviated from. In this case, please send  the completed form by e-mail to Heidi.Riederer@uni-passau.de.

The Passauer Journal für Sozialwissenschaften (PJS) is a student-run journal. Outstanding academic work is published in the PJS. Students who are currently writing their Bachelor's or advanced seminar papers are recommended to have a look at the PSJ to see how the papers are structured. Here you can find all previous issues of the PJS.
