Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The joint seminar aims to gain professional skills in elaborating, presenting, and reflecting critically on a selected research topic (e.g. PhD thesis). Hereby, Master students can take advantage of the experience of the PhDs and PhDs practice constructive feedback.Students have to bring a prepared 10min presentation of their project (e.g., thesis) to the first seminar and then prepare a 20min presentation for the second meeting based on feedback by the group and in-class activities. Similarly, Master students are invited to present their respective thesis, being it a rather conceptual presentation or a presentation including already achieved results. The MSc students will not only receive feed-back from the respective supervisor, but also from everybody attending the course, including PhD students.All interested graduates, post-graduates, tutors, and teaching assistants are invited to participate.
