Bachelor (Project and Thesis)
At the Institute of Visual Computing, our bachelor-level courses provide a comprehensive introduction to visual computing, encompassing computer graphics, computer vision, and information visualization.
Our curriculum spans the fundamentals of image processing and the essential components of visual systems, through the architecture of graphics processors and visualization frameworks, to advanced algorithms for computer vision and interactive visualization techniques.
Students will gain an understanding of the principles behind realistic rendering and effective data visualization, learn to construct visual computing systems from the ground up, and develop their skills through practical coursework.
For those interested in further exploration, we offer opportunities to undertake a bachelor’s thesis. This allows students to work on individual projects tailored to their interests.
The optional Bachelor Project involves a practical project that can be closely related to the bachelor’s thesis. Upon completion, students submit their project along with relevant documentation, which in most cases can be included in the bachelor thesis.
The Bachelor’s Thesis requires students to address a specific scientific question, conduct literature research, engage in practical project work, and produce a written thesis. The process concludes with the submission of the project and thesis, followed by a presentation of the findings.
- Presentation Dates
At the IVC, every completed Bachelor Project, Thesis and Master Project will be presented in our POC class. The presentations usually take place every second Tuesday of the month during the semester, in the Franz Leberl Seminar Room, starting at 15:00. To register for your talk, please contact us via email – . Your talk should be around 15 minutes long, followed by 5 minutes of Q&A.
- Templates
We offer different LaTeX (Overleaf) templates for projects and theses, as well as slide templates. We strongly recommend using LaTeX for your written work!
- Registering for a Project/Thesis
You can start a Bachelor’s Thesis and/or Bachelor Project at any time. First, you should identify a supervisor whose research topics sound interesting to you. Reach out via email to request a meeting to discuss potential topics, which are usually based on our topic list. The topic list is far from complete, so please feel free to contact us, we usually have unlisted project topics as well. Of course you can also come to us with your own topic!
