Thesis projects are offered by the joint KATRIN working group at the Institute of Experimental Particle Physics (ETP) and the Institute for Astroparticle Physics (IAP) at KIT. The work is conducted at KIT Campus North and can be carried out either in English or in German, as per your preference. For further interesting thesis topics beyond this list (experimental, analysis and simulation) please contact Prof. Kathrin Valerius or Prof. Guido Drexlin.
