	== Finding a topic and an advisor ==		== Finding a topic and an advisor ==

	~~== Starting to write ==~~		To get started on writing a diploma thesis, both a topic and an advisor are needed. While there is no general list of offered topics, most research groups keep a list of current thesis projects and topics on their respective websites. Additionally, lecturers can be asked whether they offer thesis supervision for their area of research.

	* register your topic		It's also possible to freely chose the topic, provided that it is related to the respective study program and someone is willing and able to supervise it. To find a advisor for a specific topic, ask people from relevant research groups or search for keywords in the [https://tiss.tuwien.ac.at/fpl/search.xhtml Research Database in TISS]. It is also possible to write a company sponsored thesis, for more information on that refer to the [https://informatics.tuwien.ac.at/sponsored-theses faculty homepage].

	== ~~Submission~~ ==		After finding both a topic and a advisor, an abstract needs to be submitted for approval by the advisor. Note that there may be no reply if the topic is approved, only if there is an issue.

			=== Personal Compatibility ===

			Remember that writing a thesis generally includes a lot of personal contact with your advisor. It's generally recommended to choose an advisor you are confident you'll want to work with for at least half a year.

			As not all lecturers at TU Wien are legally permitted to supervise theses, it's possible to have one person as an advisor, while officially being supervised by their group lead or department. This does not affect the writing process, but may impact response time and effort needed to complete all organisational requirements.

			== Writing ==

			The exact focus area, research questions and length of the thesis differ and need to be discussed with the advisor. Some advisors provide support for getting into academic reading and writing, be prepared to use this as a resource.

			Depending on what was agreed upon with the advisor, the writing process may include multiple feedback rounds and regular meetings, but there is no fixed process to be followed.

			=== Research ===

			This step should be started before submitting an abstract for approval. Researching a topic both provides the needed knowledge for writing a decent abstract and helps with judging personal interest and motivation for going forward with this topic.

			Aside from [http://www.ub.tuwien.ac.at resources available in the library], TU Wien has several journal subscriptions that provide access to scientific papers. Those can be used by researching while at TU (i.e. having a TU Wien IP address), [https://www.it.tuwien.ac.at/en/services/network-infrastructure-and-server-services/tunet/vpn-virtual-private-network/ using the TU VPN] or possibly by logging in to TISS or TUWEL to get an authentication cookie and using Google Scholar.

			If sources are not available for free using the TU network, there are several options:
			* try to find a pdf online, there are several webservices dedicated to providing free paper access
			* find and use a different paper
			* talk to your advisor about access options
			* visit other universities and use eduroam to potentially get access to their journal subscriptions
			* ask the authors of the paper if they are willing to send you a copy

			=== Templates ===

			There are some requirements for the content and formatting of a thesis, which can be found [https://informatics.tuwien.ac.at/ss-msc-graduation-de#formale-richtlinien on the faculty homepage] (german only!). Several [https://informatics.tuwien.ac.at/ss-msc-graduation-de#vorlagen-und-ressourcen templates] are offered to support compliance.

			=== Tips for Writing ===

	~~=== Thesis ===~~		The writing process itself varies from person to person, different tips may work for different people.

	~~=== Poster ===~~		* find others working on a thesis or another long term project and meet up to write side-by-side
			* block out timeslots in your calender to use for writing
			* agree with your advisor to send weekly progress reports
			* set up your work environment to minimize distractions
			* ...
