\section{Abstract}
The Fermi Bubbles remain one of the largest unexplained objects in the gamma ray sky. The two lobes, which appear to originate close to the galactic center and extend some
50$\degree$ perpendicular to the galactic plane, have spurred discussions about the recent history of our Milky Way. While their origin is not yet understood, various ideas have been presented, such as past AGN jet activity from the SMBH in the
galactic center, as well as a starburst scenario.\
This work studies the spectrum and morphology of the Fermi Bubbles, which need to be well understood to evaluate the current theories regarding the nature of the bubbles. \
In this study, 12 years of Fermi LAT data and state-of-the-art diffuse emission models are used to analyse the bubbles using all-sky fits in a template fitting approach. I present the effect of the different models on the spectrum, as well as possible spatial variations.
