Contents
The main seminar aims to train students in scientific work. Each participant must therefore deal intensively with a specific topic. You will receive initial research assistance from the respective supervisor of your topic. You will also receive helpful material in the corresponding OPAL course. In addition, we hold training sessions on writing, research and presentation skills on selected workshop dates.
For successful participation, each student is required to give a presentation on their chosen topic and to write a paper of an agreed length. Both the paper and the presentation can be in either German or English. The paper will also be evaluated by other participants, i.e. in the same way as the reviewers' feedback on a submitted publication.
At the request of the participants, the written papers will finally be compiled in a volume for the seminar. Participation in the discussion of a presentation should primarily take place in the seminar, but is also possible in the forum (OPAL course).

Information on mental health The vocational training or qualification phase in the transition between school and later working life is a crucial and at the same time sensitive phase of life. Therefore, take care of your mental health, especially in challenging situations such as exam phases or before deadlines. You are welcome to use our OPAL resources on mental health (Mental Health First Aid, MHFA) as a starting point. |
