English version below
Liebe Doktorandinnen und Doktoranden,
im April und Mai sind in folgenden Kursen unseres Seminarprogrammes noch Plätze frei:
>> Scientific Writing for Natural and Life Sciences (28./29.04.2016, 09:00–17:00)
Scientific Writing is an important skill for all academic careers. In order to be effective, research proposals, reports and publications must be informative, precisely formulated and well structured. The writing process includes several different tasks such as developing a proposal, effective dealing with literature, and composing and revising drafts in order to arrive at a final text. Please note: This is not a language course.
>> Erfolgreich Publizieren in den Geistes- und Sozialwissenschaften: Von der Dissertation zum Buch (06.05.2016, 09:00–13:00)
Die Veröffentlichung der Dissertation bildet den Abschluss eines langfristigen Forschungsprojekts. Dabei kann die Art der Publikation maßgeblich über die erfolgreiche Rezeption der Arbeit entscheiden. Der Workshop bietet umfassende Informationen rund um das Thema Publikationsstrategien für Doktoranden in den Geistes- und Sozialwissenschaften.
>> Good Scientific Practice: Introduction (09.05.2016, 09:00–13:00)
Serious cases of scientific misconduct have been reported recently in the media. But beside the most prominent cases several shades of questionable scientific practice might undermine the integrity of the sciences. In this introductory workshop you will gain a general understanding of good scientific practice and scientific misconduct (e.g. plagiarism, fabrication, falsification). We will explore key areas of conflict, critical situations and possible causes of misconduct. Questions regarding data management, documentation and ownership will be addressed, as well as the correct use of references and problem areas in the publication process.
>> Potenzialanalyse: Standort bestimmen – berufliche Optionen entwickeln (11./12.05.2016, 09:00–17:00)
Sie wollen langfristig beruflich erfolgreich und zufrieden sein? Das gelingt, wenn Stellenprofil und -anforderungen auf der einen Seite und Ihre Kompetenzen, Fähigkeiten und Werte auf der anderen Seite zueinander passen. Durch den Einsatz vielfältiger Methoden werden Sie in dem Workshop Ihr persönliches Stärken-Schwächen-Profil herausarbeiten.
>> Academic Discussion Skills (12. & 19.05.2016, 09:00–16:00)
When attending international conferences, you have to be able to defend your research convincingly in the Q&A session after your presentation and network effectively at conference get-togethers. The objective of this workshop is to enhance your English speaking skills for situations of this kind. Participants will leave the workshop with a bank of useful English expressions ready to use.
>> Writing Grant Proposals (17.05.2016, 14:00–18:00)
Writing grant proposals is a demanding task because evaluation committees expect clear and concise texts. In addition, grant proposals differ in structure and style from other forms of academic writing. The workshop includes lectures and exercises. In the exercises, participants draft components of their own proposals.
>> Publishing Papers in the Natural Sciences (GSP 2) (18.05.2016, 09:00–16:30)
Publishing papers in academic journals is a demanding task that is at times rewarding and at times frustrating. As publishing is a prerequisite for a career in science, it is important to approach the topic strategically. The objectives of this course are: (1) to understand the publication process in peer-reviewed journals, (2) to learn about ethical standards and legal regulations, and (3) to develop individual publishing strategies.
