Please bear in mind that we only have limited supervision capacity. As a rule, it is helpful if you contact potential supervisors 1 semester before the actual start of the Master's thesis (see below for more information).
IMPORTANT: We can only guarantee you supervision if you already fulfill the requirements for participation in the PV "Current Research Topics". These are
- Application of multivariate methods on the computer (module point A.2)
- Applications for test construction (module point B.3)
4 further courses from module C (basic in-depth study) or module D (in-depth study of applications)

As a rule, I accept four students per semester for supervision of the Master's thesis. These places are allocated on two dates per year.
October 1: Allocation of places for the coming summer semester

- Transcript of Records of your Master's degree program (this must show that you already meet the requirements for participation in the PV Current Research Topics in Psychology)

Information on Supervision
I supervise a maximum of two Master's theses at the same time. I therefore take on new supervisions very irregularly (as soon as a Master's thesis has been completed). If you are interested in supervision, please contact me directly (by e-mail to silvia.macher(at)uni-graz.at).
Please note that I will only make a supervision commitment if you fulfill all the requirements for participation in the PV Current Research Topics in Psychology. I do not keep a waiting list.
