Topics

We offer the following topics for this course. You should work with a partner as all topics need considerable work. You can choose 3 topics currently not assigned to anyone (N.N.) and submit your short list through Sakai/kvv. Place the topic you are most interested in at position one etc. We will assign you to a topic - if possible - according to your preferences. In case of a collision and your list is exhausted the date/time of your registration determines the order (FCFS). We will tell you the topic or the failure of the assignment.
