| Learning Outcomes |
Competences |
| During the preparation of the bachelor's thesis, students have acquired the ability to work independently on a narrowly defined task from the field of experimental molecular biology or biophysics under the guidance of a supervisor using scientifically correct methods within a given time frame.
|
|
| Skills |
Knowledge |
After successful completion of the bachelor's thesis, students are able to:
- to work on a clearly defined molecular biology problem within a given period of time largely independently using scientific methods (k4);
- use experimental methods to work on a given topic under guidance (k3);
- assess the quality and relevance of their own results and evaluate them in a scientific context (k5);
- to identify problems that arise during the work, to question them analytically and to develop solutions independently (k5/k6);
- independently find relevant literature and master techniques of literature research (k3);
- interpret relevant literature passages and critically classify them in the given context and cite them in a scientifically correct manner (k5);
- summarise the results of their own work in a scientific report, adhering to the usual standards of scientific publications (k6);
- present the results of their own work orally in a clear and structured way (k6);
- Critically reflect on feedback and incorporate it into their work (k5).
|
During the course, students acquire in-depth knowledge of current scientific topics and methods that are relevant for the implementation of their bachelor's thesis.

|
| Criteria for evaluation |
The evaluation of the bachelor's thesis will be carried out during the seminar. Therefore, the grade awarded takes into account both the quality of the results achieved in the context of the bachelor's thesis and its written and oral presentation.
|
| Methods |
In the bachelor's thesis, students work independently on an experimental, molecular biological or biophysical question. They develop, generate data and evaluate it using suitable analysis methods. The aim is to interpret the results obtained, test hypotheses and gain new scientific knowledge.
