Second SE²A Summer School for doctoral researchers

From September 7th – September 9th, 2021 the SE²A doctoral researchers had the opportunity to attend the second SE²A Summer School. The programme of the Summer School had two main agenda items:
 

1) to qualify the doctoral researchers for the upcoming preparation ot their dissertations,
2) to offer networking opportunities.
 

During the first part of the Summer School, the doctoral researchers attended a 2-day-online-workshop on „How to approach your PhD-Thesis?“ (held by Prof. Timo Braun) and reflected on topics like time- and self-management as well as finding a structure for their PhD-projects.

Day 3 was dedicated to networking activities. With those who wanted to attend personally (and were fully vaccinated) we spent a day hiking in the Harz mountains with a lot of opportunity to explore the area and get to know each other. Those who would or could not attend the trip to the Harz, met online for a thrilling „escape game“.

We would like to thank everyone being involved in realising the workshop under still difficult conditions. We are looking forward to the 2022 Summer School – hopefully with personal attendance of all participants.
