Inhalt | The colloquium 'Challenges in Plant Sciences' is a core event of the Plant Science Center's PhD program and the PSC Master’s module. The colloquium introduces participants to the variety of disciplines in plant sciences. The topics offer integrated knowledge about plant sciences, from the molecular level to the ecosystem level, and from basic to applied science, while making use of the synergies between the different research groups of the PSC. The course offers a unique chance to approach interdisciplinary topics as challenges in the field of plant sciences. Between 26 September and 6 November: Student groups prepare their colloquium talks using the literature provided. Colloquium, 2 days block course on 6 & 7 November 2012, (9.15-17h, tentative time schedule): Student groups present their talks. Grading of student talks by experts. During the kick-off meeting, lecturers give talks on various topics as an introduction to their broad research fields. Subsequently, each student group prepares a presentation chosen from a variety of topics and based on literature provided by their tutors. Students gain knowledge and practice discussing and presenting research results. |
Lernziele | - introduce PhD and Master students to the broad field of plant sciences - promote active participation and independent student work - enhance presentation and discussion skills - increase interactions among students and teachers - promote an interdisciplinary and integrative teaching program |
Literatur | Will be distributed through eMail. |
