Information for Enquiries Regarding the Allocation of Examinations

As a research institution, the Ethnologisches Museum is of course always available for scientific enquiries and co-operations. However, we ask for your understanding that due to the large number of enquiries we receive, please allow of at least six weeks. For the allocation of examinations (seminar papers, Bachelor's, Master's and doctoral theses), we expressly request that you contact the museum before assigning a topic in order to clarify whether and in what and in what period of time an answer or processing can be guaranteed.
