Workshop description:
Scientific projects today are characterized by a high degree of complexity and planning uncertainty. Young scientists are often confronted with seemingly insurmountable hurdles at the beginning of a project (for example, an honors project or later at the beginning of a PhD) and not infrequently questions arise such as for example:
- How do I find the right topic?
- How do I work on the topic as efficiently as possible?
- How much independence is expected of me?
- How much risk is allowed?
- When can I say my project goal has been achieved?
Sound project management can help to eliminate these uncertainties and lead to competent project work.
The workshop is aimed at students and young academics who would like to plan their projects stringently. It teaches the basics of scientific work and project management in science and offers methods for initiating, planning and structuring a project. Participants have the opportunity to create their own individual project plan.
Methods will include a mixture of theoretic input as well as individual, partner and group exercises.
Workshop language is English. The workshop will be conducted online.
