Date and Time: December 09th-11th 2024 (full day)
Instructors: Prof. Dr. Achim Schlüter, Dr. Achim Meyer, Dr. Carolin Müller and Dr. Tim Dudeck and various experts from ZMT
The course aims to introduce participants to ZMT´s mission and vision and to establish a relation to their own research project. This includes a reflection on the research design of their project and on concepts of interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity which are central to ZMT. The aim is to use these three days for an intensive academic dialogue about the “why” and “how” of our research and by these means helping the Doctoral candidates to put their project into a broader perspective and connect it to the expertise present at ZMT. The teaching format includes lectures, interactive sessions and self-study-time. As a result the Doctoral Candidates will have designed a poster summarizing the core ideas of your Doctoral research and the connection to the inter- and transdisiplinary approach at ZMT.
The course is for all Doctoral Candidates at ZMT. Guest researchers and interested Postdocs or Master Students can participate as well. The Course is compulsory for all Doctoral Candidates that have started from November 2023 onwards.
