This information is usually already provided by Student Service. Please check the information carefully. If any information is incorrect, please contact Student Service. You cannot make changes yourself.

6. Title, abstract, language version
Due to system requirements, you must also enter the title of your thesis in the “Abstract” field in this section. This entry is only required for the language version in which your thesis was written. In the example below, this is the German language version (indicated by the green checkmark in the “Language of the full text” column). The title and language version are already pre-filled by Student Service. If this information is incorrect, please contact Student Service.

• Click on “Edit” in the last column.
• Then copy your thesis title into the “Abstract” field.
• Click “Save”.

7. Declaration of Consent
Please read the declaration of consent carefully and then click “Consent”.

8. Documents

• Under “Upload Full Text”, upload the final version of your thesis in PDF format.
• In addition, you must submit an anonymized PDF version of your thesis under “Upload Anonymized Version”.
• After uploading, you can review both files by clicking on them.

Please note: The system automatically checks the format of the full text. This process may take a few minutes. If the check is not yet complete, please reload the page at a later time to continue with the submission. If your thesis contains additional attachments, please send these separately to your advisors – either by email or in person.

9. Once you have completed all the items on the checklist, scroll to the top of the page and finalize the submission by clicking “Complete” in the final step.

10. Confirm the submission by clicking “Yes”. This will officially submit your thesis. No further changes can be made after this point. Student Service will be automatically notified of the successful submission via email.

After successful submission, a confirmation will appear in the system indicating that your thesis has been submitted successfully.

The submitted full text will remain available in the detail view for reference.
