guidelines support you in your preparation of a seminar, bachelor, or master thesis. We and subsequent student cohorts are grateful for your comments and suggestions on this guide. The guidelines sketch out an approach that we consider as convenient. Accordingly, you can use the templates to create your own document. However, other approaches are conceivable and possible as long as they are coherent and approved by the respective supervisor.\nScientific work requires studying the recent scientific literature, in particular the (mostly English) essays. The use of web portals such as Google Scholar could be helpful. It is desirable that your thesis contains also your personal thoughts and contributions. Therefore, it must be absolutely clear, which parts of your work are based on work of others, and which parts represent your own considerations. This separation is achieved by the complete labelling of external considerations and the verifiability of the specific sources. Parts that bear no hint to external sources are considered as your own considerations. If it turns out that these unmarked parts do not represent your considerations but are copied from other sources, then the thesis is considered as dishonest work.\nEven scientific papers should be written reader-friendly: simple short sentences instead of “nested sentences,” simple English words instead of loanwords.
