At IMMIDD, we aim to support and train the future generation of infectious disease researchers. 
We hope to be able to do this through the IMMIDD seminar-series, course and supervision of student-projects on all levels.

Bachelor or Master's Thesis

IMMIDD offers cosupervision for Bachelor and Master's theses within in all the disciplines included in IMMIDD (e.g. Mathematics,  Physics, Geoinformatics, Information Systems and others). If you wish to do your Bachelor or Master's thesis in infectious disease modeling, we will be very happy to provide you with support and supervision. Please get in touch with us by sending an email to immidd@uni-muenster.de 

Examples of past projects:

• Parallelization of Agent-Based Simulations of Epidemics (Bachelors)

• Interpretable Hierarchical Forecasting of Infectious Diseases (Master)

• Non-Pharmaceutical Intervention Strategies in Publicly Available Agent-based Infectious Disease Simulation Tools (Bachelors)
• An analysis of agent-based model development approaches in public health in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic (Bachelors)
• Development of a Method for the Identification of Epidemiological Sentinels (Bachelors)
• Validation and Verification of Agent-Based Models in Emerging Infectious Disease Simulations (Bachelors)
• Modeling Infectious Disease Spread: Comparing Agent Based Models with Differential
• Equation Based Models (Bachelors, Geoinformatics)
• Developing a Methodology for Selecting Calibration Techniques for Agent-Based Infectious Disease Models (Masters)

Doctoral Thesis

We also offer support for writing doctoral thesis (Ph.D.) and medical doctoral thesis (Dr. Med.) with infectious disease epidemiology, hosted at the Department of Epidemiology and Social Medicine. Please get in touch, if this is of interest for you.

Courses

IMMIDD will soon be offering a course within the series "Model- and data-based methods in the natural sciences (MoDaNa)" organized by the Center for Data Science and Complexity (CDSC).
