BA/MA Theses: Writing for Impact
Enrich you studies with IMPACT! By writing your thesis on an environmental and/or social sustainability related topic, you will not only expand your awareness and knowledge but also will contribute to the wider research community. Affiliated STaR Faculty as well as the members of STaR intellectual community all work on projects related to sustainability and responsibility. To further help you in deciding on your thesis topic, we have compiled a list of faculty members from over 50 WU Institutes and their research areas. As you probably know, at WU Vienna you can write your thesis at any Department/Institute. You will see there are a great many possibilities!
Before you look at the list, please note that:
The list is for informational purposes only. The STaR team is not responsible for changes in the content of individual Institutes’ websites.
Supervision requirements vary greatly among departments and institutes. STaR does not provide information on how to submit a thesis proposal. Please visit the Institutes’ websites or contact potential supervisors.
Generally, at WU, theses can be written in German or English. Writing in another language may also be an option at the Department of Foreign Language Business Communication. Please inquire with your potential supervisor.
The STaR Competence Center does not directly engage in theses supervision.
