In this seminar, participants learn how to

give a scientific presentation,

contribute to an academic discussion (by asking questions, answering questions and making comments),

prepare and write a seminar paper, which includes getting to know

o literature search,

o standards of academic honesty and

o rules of referencing and citation.

The seminar addresses sector-specific problems in public utility management with a special focus on the interaction between regulation and management. Participants learn to consider, to analyse and to solve sector-specific problems in public utility management.

The seminar starts with a detailed introduction into the topics and methods relevant to the seminar by the tutor. Then participants write seminar papers and give presentations. The presentations of other participants are commented on and discussed. This enables everyone to receive detailed feedback.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

The usage of AI tools for the purpose of research is allowed. The usage of text elements based on the usage of AI tools is not allowed.

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

The grade of a participant depends on his/her presentation (30%), his/her active participation (30%), and his/her seminar paper (40%).

The presentation slides to be created should summarise the essentials of the seminar paper correctly and clearly in terms of content. They are the basis for the oral presentation.

The set of slides must contain, among other things, a comprehensive bibliography based on the literature search carried out in libraries and on the internet.

The oral presentation of the seminar paper should be given in an easily understandable, appealing and sensibly structured manner.

Permanent attendance is a necessary condition for passing, but is not sufficient. Through active participation in the course in the form of questions, answers to questions and comments, students should participate in the discussion. A one-time excused absence is possible. If a participant is absent for a longer period, the seminar cannot be completed successfully.
