According to the directive of the rectorate of the University of Vienna, between Wednesday, 11 March 2020, and Friday, 3 April 2020, all lecture courses will change to remote learning.

For this seminar, the content of the first three classes (18 March, 25 March, 1 April) will be added to the remaining classes starting on Wednesday, 22 April.

As a consequence, the seminar will take place every Wednesday starting from 22 April 2020, between 10:00 and 12:00 SINE TEMPORE in the Kurt-Gödel lecture hall on the ground floor.

If you would experience any disadvantage from the new arrangement e.g. due to a conflict with another lecture course please approach Christiane Losert-Valiente Kroon on behalf of the other course instuctors any time. We will do our best to find a better alternative.

UPDATE 1 APRIL 2020:
According to an update by the rectorate and Director of Studies the modalities of the course will be switched to digital teaching. The first virtual session of the course will take place on Wednesday, 22 April. We will keep you updated on the specifics via email and thank you for your patience.

Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

This course aims at giving an overview of research done by students at the Faculty of Physics as well as offer a place to connect with students from other groups and refine your skills in writing scientific articles. After an introduction on the publication process in the first units, students will give weekly talks on scientific articles from their research field. Challenges they are facing in translating the scientific work into a publication and how to overcome them will be discussed. Occasionally, there will be visits to laboratories to get an insight into the practical work related to the publications discussed in the seminar.

This course is open to students from all areas of physics (theoretical, computational or experimental) and to both PhD and MSc students. All presentations will be done in English.

UPDATE 15 April 2020:
Switching from classroom to virtual activities some of the delivery methods have to be adapted:
The weekly talks on scientific articles and visits to the laboratories are cancelled.
Instead, participants are asked to provide essays which will be discussed together in a forum and/or live chat. Background reading and a list of potential topics -related to the writing and publishing process of scientific texts- is available on Moodle.
In addition to the discussion of scientific articles and the practical work behind, short writing exercises will be assigned every week which can be uploaded on Moodle and which will be discussed together in the following session.
