Research Colloquium

This research colloquium is intended primarily for PhD and master's students currently writing their theses. Bachelor's students are, however, also welcome to attend.

If you are interested in attending a colloquium session, please contact us in advance.

Professors and docents at the institute advise (PhD and MA) students on an individual basis after consultation. Students interested in entering an advisory relationship should contact professor(s) in the related department(s) with an expose. Exposes should include a description of the topic, method, and timeline for the project. Click here for our institute's Guide to writing exposés [2] (in German only).

Coordination and Contact: Robert Skwirblies [3].

Sessions are currently held on zoom Cloudmeetings (please contact us for participation).

Presumably by mid-end 2021, research colloquium sessions will turn back to take place from 2 to 6 p.m, in room A 083 (here [4]). Between presentations, the floor is open for discussion. Unless otherwise stated, sessions are held in German.

Changes reserved.
