| Several master thesis can be done on developing domain-specific theories of change. Depending on the background of the student, they can apply different methods such as unstructured interviews with domain experts or statistical analysis of spatial temporal change patterns. The outcome shall be a set of description rules (i.e. rules to classify regions into different types) and evolution rules (i.e. rules to describe changes of different types). | Several master thesis can be done on developing domain-specific theories of change.

| Master students working on the development of a domain theory of change can take part in the exchange program, if domain experts are in the corresponding institute. This is particularly the case fo German master students working on land change in the Brazilian Amazon. The Master Student should at least partly work in the country where the expert is situated. | Master students working on the development of a domain theory of change can take part in the exchange program, if domain experts are in the corresponding institute.
