Information on supervision:
If you are considering Christina Zuber as future first supervisor for your BA or MA thesis, please send a one page document to office.zuber@uni-konstanz.de, covering the following points:
- Which research question do you want to address?
- Which strand of the literature and which theories do you want to relate your thesis to?
- Which research design, type of data and analysis are you planning to use to answer your research question?
Further, if you plan to write your thesis under Christina Zuber's supervision, please make sure you attend her Colloquium either in parallel to, or in the semester before registering the thesis. The Colloquium is offered every semester.
If you already have an agreement with Christina Zuber on supervision and just need to resolve formalities (signature for registering the thesis etc.), please get directly in touch with Annette Flowe (office.zuber@uni-konstanz.de).
You can find the link to upload your thesis for the obligatory plagiarism check on "turnitin" in the blue box on the right.

Information on letters of recommendation:
Please bare in mind that two necessary conditions apply if you want Christina Zuber to write you a letter of recommendation:
- You have attended one of her seminars*, have actively participated in the discussions, have handed in a written assignment and have finished the seminar with a total grade ≤ 2.0;
- You are contacting us with your request at the very least three weeks in advance of the deadline;
In case condition 1 and 2 apply, please send an e-mail with your request to Annette Flowe at office.zuber@uni-konstanz.de, containing:
a) the contact details of the addressee of the letter;
b) the deadline;
c) a short remark on your motivation to apply;
d) your CV;
e) your current transcript of records.
*It should be obvious that it is impossible for Christina Zuber to write a sensible letter of recommendation evaluating your academic qualities if you have only sat through her big lecture on German politics ("Das politische System Deutschlands"). So if your listening to her lecture is the only basis on which you and her have interacted intellectually, please refrain from asking for letters.
