Preface requirements concerning acknowledgement I am curious to know what the preface requirements are for bachelor and master theses. Are you legally (or morally) required to use the full names of the people included in the acknowledgements?

Does anyone know?
The acknowledgments part is the only place where you are completely free to write whatever you want. You are not legally or morally required to write anything unless you agreed to previously. Some funding entities, generally private companies may require you to do so (e.g. NVIDIA gives free GPUs to researchers with the condition they acknowledge NVIDIA in papers).

I've seen people in this site mentioning that they acknowledged God, a fictional dog and non-existent people. Just write what you want.
