 +===== Information on Bachelor and Master Theses =====
 + {{anchor:thesis}}
 +If you are interested in a Bachelor,  Master or PhD thesis in the field of
 +precision calculations and particle phenomenology, please contact Gudrun Heinrich [[gudrun.heinrich@kit.edu|via email]].
 +The thesis may involve work with programs based mainly on python and
 +C++ (for example the program  [[https://github.com/gudrunhe/secdec/releases|pySecDec]]) or python and fortran90 (for example the program  [[https://github.com/gudrunhe/gosam|GoSam]]).
 +However, subjects where the focus is more on analytic calculations are also possible.
 +The students will be part of an active and lively research group,
 +comprising also international collaborators.
  
-  +===== Examples for Bachelor thesis topics ===== 
 +   * Untersuchung der Effekte anomaler Kopplungen im Higgs- und top-quark-Sektor am LHC 
 +   * Numerische Untersuchung von Loop-Integralen basierend auf dem Programm [[https://github.com/gudrunhe/secdec/releases|pySecDec]] 
 +   * Untersuchung extremer kinematischer Bereiche (Hochenergie-Limes, kleine Massen, etc.) 
 +   * Untersuchung von Prozessen an zukünftigen Lepton-Beschleunigern 
 +  
  
 +===== Examples for Master thesis topics =====
