Master's thesis
Your Master's thesis should be written in an Horticultural Science-related topic and has to be supervised by a BOKU professor in this area. To find a thesis topic and supervisor please contact potential supervisors directly. It is useful to pick a topic and supervisor in the area of your study which you personally prefer. Some departments/institutes offer Master's thesis topics on their webpage or during a thesis fair which is promoted on their webpages. You can also check the pinboards of the institutes for project announcements or get directly in contact with lecturers in the areas where you want to write your thesis.
For BOKU-Home students it is mandatory to have a co-supervisor from another IMaHS partner university in addition to the BOKU supervisor.
For BOKU-Host students (double degree) it is mandatory to have a co-supervisor from BOKU in addition to the home university supervisor.
