Job offers / thesis projects
============================

This page will list thesis projects available in the R\ :sup:`3`\ B DAQ and controls group. Currently, we are compiling a list of possible projects and updating the descriptions. Shown below are a few examples.

If you are interested in working with technology, want to learn more about high performance data acquisition, or controlling complex experimental setups, let us know!

The topics currently on our mind are:
