Workshops, Trainings and Retreats

Every semester, the DSE offers various workshops, trainings and retreats on different academic topics. These are geared towards the needs and wishes of the fellows and are designed to support them in a successful dissertation phase.

Activities of interest groups

The focus here is on our fellows' own initiative: depending on requirements, various interest groups can be organized, which can focus on intellectual topics as well as joint ventures such as crafts, sports, etc. The DSE provides organizational and financial support here.

Your Research @ Dies Facultatis

Once a year, the faculty invites you to the Dies Facultatis in the main university building. Fellows of the DSE and the VDSP can present their PhD projects on posters in the portico of the Arkadenhof and introduce them to interested guests. On the one hand, this enables them to make their own research more visible and, on the other, trains their presentation and communication skills with regard to their own dissertation project.
