Graduate training program
The formal training program, consisting of 6,5 SWS (= ‘Semester-Wochen-Stunden = hours per Semester per week) will be divided into the following sections:
Lecture Series, Winter Semester: Methods and Techniques (2 SWS)
Lecture Series, Summer Semester: Specialised Topics (2 SWS, ‘Ringvorlesung’)
Student Seminar: trouble shooting, progress and literature (1 SWS)
Colloquia: Invited lecturers (0,5 SWS)
Workshops (during semester breaks) will be held in blocks corresponding to 3 SWS
The lecture series ‘Methods and Techniques’ is intended to run for three semesters, i.e. will last the duration of one doctoral period. The ‘Specialised Topics’ will be updated yearly to allow for new developments in the field.
In addition, two study weekends will be held annually at the Leucorea, Wittenberg, and an International Symposium will take place triennially. Attendence at an international meeting as well as an (average) six weeks research stay in the laboratory of a foreign collaborator are also requirements for successful completion of the GK.
The program of the actual lecture series can be found under Events.
