 ## Getting a Topic for a Bahelor's, Master's, or Ph.D. Thesis
 
-Generell bemühe
-ich mich die Themen auf die Interessen des Kandidaten zuzuschneiden in
-einem ersten Abstimmungsprozess. Daher sollten wir vielleicht einen
-Telefon- oder skype-Termin vereinbaren; Freitag ginge bei mir ziemlich gut.
-
-Hier aber schon einmal einen Überblick über Themengebiete, die uns so
-interessieren.

+The KWARC group has a strong tradition of involving students in research early. We had
+Bachelor Students who graduated with multiple papers at international conferences or a
+journal article to their name. 
+
+Generally, we try to tailor thesis topics matching the KWAC interests to the interests of
+the candidate in a personal "thesis negotiation process". Actually, as theses in KWARC are
+about fundamental and systems research (i.e. the research question co-evolves with the
+results obtained), the "thesis topic" will just be an initial idea to be understood and
+developed further during the thesis research process.This applies to the topics listed
+below, in particular, you should contact the Principal Investigator of KWARC
+[Prof. Michael Kohlhase](http://kwarc.info/kohlhase).
 
 ## Thesis Topcis.
 
-Topcis are avaialble in the following larger areas, details can be found in the issues:
-
-* Serious Games for Maths (basierend auf Logik und Theoriegraphen)
-* Extraktion von Semantik aus mathematisch/technischen Dokumenten (und
-die Verwendung in mathematischen Suchmaschinen)
-* Integration von Theorembeweiserbibliotheken in das MathHub System.
-* Aktive Dokumente und die Integration semantischer Mehrwertdienste in
-technisch/mathematischen Dokumenten (z.B. in der Lehre)
-* Interoperabilität und Integration von mathematischen Software-Systemen
-(Computer Algegra, mathematischen Datenbanken, Theorembeweisern, ... )
-* Cognitive Engineering (Semantische Informations/Hilfesysteme für
-CAD/CAM Systeme)
+Topcis are available in the following larger areas, individual topics will be encoded as

+
+* Serious Games for Maths (based on logic and theory graphs)
+* Semantics-Extraction from technical/mathematical documents (and the use of this in

+* [Integration of theorem prover libraries](http://kwarc.info/projects/OAF) (in the
+  [MathHub System](http://mathhub.info)).
+* Active Dokuments and the integration of semantic services into technical/mathematical
+  documnets (e.g. for course materials)
+* Interoperability and integration of mathematical software systems - e.g. computer
+  algegra, math data bases, theorem provers (in the
+  [OpenDreamKit](http://opendreamkit.org) EU project)
+* Cognitive engineering (semantische information/help systems for CAD/CAM systems).
