Being a thesis supervisor is a big task, but also an exciting task.

Therefore, we have gathered some good advice, guidelines and links that may be of help.
There may also be a subject-specific description of how to work with Master’s theses on your degree programme. To get this, however, you should contact your head of department or the Master’s thesis coordinator on your degree programme.
Video meetings limit your options as you cannot use the entire room but only the area shown by the camera. Therefore, you should consider how you as a teacher appear on the screen, and use the necessary tools to make up for the lack of physical presence and movement.

Test the connection before the video meeting or online teaching session begins.
