All seminar papers must be turned in digitally and as a printed version, with both versions containing a filled in cover page template (see below) and a declaration of authorship (affidavit). Please turn in the printed version held together with a fileback fastener (not a paper clip) and either bring them by in person or address them to the Chair and drop them off at the University-wide mailbox at the Verwaltungsgebäude or our own mailbox in the lobby of HK16.

Scheme for Academic Papers (please prepare this form before office hour appointments on seminar papers, bachelor and master dissertations)

Guidelines for Academic Papers (seminar papers, bachelor and master dissertations etc.)

Bachelor:

At the professorship, the following persons supervise Bachelor theses on the respective broad subject areas:

• Professor Dr Bernhard Stahl (International Politics in general)
• Dr Sören Keil

The prerequisite for the supervision of a Bachelor thesis is the attendance of at least one Hauptseminar at the professorship and the attendance of both lectures (Introduction to the Study of International Politics & Selected Chapters of International Politics).

Master:

At the professorship, the following persons supervise Master theses on the respective broad subject areas:

• Professor Dr Bernhard Stahl (International Politics in general)
• Dr Sören Keil

Prerequisite for the supervision of a Master thesis is the successful completion of at least one Master's class (term paper) at the professorship.

In principle, no Schein-certificates will be issued by the professorship for non-credited academic efforts, as these can be listed as additional achievements in the HISQIS statement. In documented exceptional cases (e.g. necessary ECTS for a Master's program), this basic rule can be deviated from. In this case, please send  the completed form by e-mail to Heidi.Riederer@uni-passau.de.
