Writing your master thesis during your internship
Sometimes we take on the important responsibility of supervising a master thesis as part of an internship. However, we are not able to guarantee this in advance due to the nature of our project-based work and the changing topics that arise. Once the internship is underway and we have more clarity on current projects, we can confirm whether we are able to supervise your master thesis, but unfortunately not beforehand.
