Students are required to demonstrate whether there are relevant data and information sources to achieve the proposed objectives of theses and whether those sources are at their disposal. If a topic is to include the application part, the student is required to research the data sources, and if necessary to contact practitioners to demonstrate their willingness to cooperate (if necessary) and to identify specific sources for an application part. If this condition is not satisfied, it is not possible to set the supervisor approve to the assignment.

Then the supervisor must entry the agreed assignment into the IS by the end of the second week of the examination period.

Supervisor is not required to propose his own topic, an active approach of students to the creation of assignment is expected. Responsibility for the invitation to the topic entirely borne by the student.
