The completion of a Master thesis is mandatory for the successful completion of the Master’s Program Elektrotechnik or Elektrotechnik- Wirtschaft, The time allotted corresponds to approximately 6 months, depending on the intensity of work of the student.
The choice of the topic for a master thesis is decisive. The topic should primarily correspond to the student’s interest and be directed at the future professional interest of the student. Therefore, topic proposals by students are gladly accepted provided they fit the research interests of the IEE. Additionally, the IEE regularly advertises topics for possible master theses in order to provide students with appropriate ideas. In either case, the student is advised to contact an assistant at the institute. These advertised topics may be found on the notice board of the institute, or on the institute’s homepage.
Shining a Light on Heat Demand: The Role of Solar Gains in High-Resolution Heat Demand Modeling
The goal of this master's thesis is to extend an existing Python-based tool for generating high-resolution heat demand time series by integrating solar heat gains, in order to improve the accuracy of hourly heat demand estimations at the building level.
Critical scenario identification in energy system planning under uncertainty using decomposition methods
The goal of this Master thesis is to extend the Benders decomposition for scenario-based stochastic programing to perform a reduction of the considered scenarios during the decomposition based on their marginal information.
