Publication-based dissertation


​​​​​​​The written dissertation describes the results of the practical work executed in the laboratory. It represents the conclusion of the research project and must meet the criteria of an independent and novel scientific work.
As an alternative to a monographic dissertation, in exceptional cases a cumulative - publication-based dissertation (German: publikationsbasierte Dissertation) can be also accepted.
