Content and goals

In this seminar, the latest research results and current projects of our chair are presented. The presentations take place in blocks and compose of:

  • Presentations of planned, ongoing and completed scientific papers by the particular students

  • Reports on ongoing dissertations

  • Reports on current projects

  • Business and research guest lectures

  • Technology discussions and presentations

The participation at the advanced seminar is obligatory for all students registered for a Diploma Thesis, Bachelor's Thesis, Master´s Thesis, an IDP, SEP or Guided Research. The student´s presence as well as his/her participation will influence the evaluation of the student´s grade. Furthermore, every student has to do a final presentation on his or her findings (30 minutes, including 10 minutes of discussion). Additionally, a presentation at the beginning of the research is required (20 minutes, including 5 minutes of discussion). For scheduling a presentation date, the student has to contact his or her advisor. The first-come-first-serve principle will be used.
