Parts of the final state examination and its content

The state final exam consists of two separately classified parts: defense of the diploma thesis and professional final examination. The entire state exam lasts about one hour (approximately 30 minutes of defense, 30 minutes of examination). The presentation of the Master's Thesis is 15 minutes, the next 15 minutes is devoted to reviews and discussion. In the following oral exam, the student responds without preparation to the questions asked, typically two to three questions are given, with at least one question being asked from the common core of the follow-up study program and at least one question from the student's specialization.

The students must be able to explain the basic concepts they learned in the profiling subjects of the program, demonstrate the ability to use the basic techniques, methods and concepts explained in the profiling subjects of the program and must be able to respond to the relevant additional questions, selected topic is discussed in depth. If a student is not able to meet one of these requirements, the exam cannot be successfully passed.

The precondition of access to the final exam is the submission of the Master's Thesis. In the case of negative reviews on the diploma thesis, the student may give up his/her defense, accept the "fail" and proceed straight to the oral exam. In case of unsuccessful defense, it is not possible to withdraw from examination.
