ATTENTION! Change in the schedule for the Bachelor Colloquium!
Please note that starting in the summer semester of 2026, we will be introducing a changed schedule for our master's seminar, practical exercises, and Bachelor Colloquium. These courses no longer be offered every semester, but only once a year!!!
The following schedule will be followed:
- Bachelor Colloquium: only in the summer semester
When planning your studies, please note that if you do not participate in the Bachelor's Colloquium this or the following semester, you will not have another opportunity to do so until the summer semester 2027!
Prerequisities
- Attending the course Fundamentals of Marketings beforehand and having advanced knowledge in marketing as taught in the courses Marketing Decisions and/or Marketing Research is strongly recommended.
- Additionally, participation in the exercise "Introduction to Scientific Work - Theory and Practice" is highly recommended, as it provides the necessary skills for writing academic papers, which are essentials for the Bachelor Colloquium.
Application Process and General Notes
Intended Number of Participants: 12 students
The topics are assigned based on student preferences during the introductory session. In case of overlapping preferences, a lottery will decide.
Examination Requirements
The examination is completed through regular attendance, presentation of ongoing work, and a final presentation of the results.
After the colloquium, students may write their Bachelor’s thesis on the chosen topic.
General Notes
