Thesis Topics

The supervised research topics listed below are mainly related to the research activities and projects conducted at the Chair of Model-based Environmental Exposure Science. The topics are aimed at Bachelor's and Master's students in Geography, Geoinformatics, Climate and Environment Sciences, and Medical Information Sciences. The topics are also suitable (in part) for doctoral students in Human Medicine.
