I'm preparing for a master thesis defense… but my presentation is getting a bit lengthy…
…anyways when the ToC gets too long on the side it stretches over. See attached image. Any good advise on how to fix that?

In lack of a full example file:
It's the same issue as with a non-beamer-document:
\section{This is a really long section title -- too long for a TOC}
will add exactlyto the TOC. However, any of the structuring commands (
\part
,\chapter
etc.) has an optional argument designed to hold the short title to appear in the TOC.\section[My short title]{This is a really long section title -- to long for a TOC}
will use thein the TOC.
