Events

To strengthen cooperation and exchange between international and German young researchers, to stimulate discussion on current academic issues, and to provide guidance with regard to career options after the completion of your doctoral degree, MIN Graduate Center regularly organizes meetings for doctoral researchers. We invite established scientists to speak on topics such as good scientific practice, transparency of scientific data, or publishing in academia. Each autumn, we welcome old and new doctoral researchers at MIN faculty with a Welcome Night to the start of the new semester. Our career events give you the unique opportunity to get in touch with experts from academia, business, and industry.

Our events are open to all doctoral researchers of MIN faculty and some require registration via Geventis. Most events take place in English.

Upcoming events will be announced here.

Welcome Night for Doctoral Researchers at MIN Faculty

Welcome to the MIN Faculty! On 22.11.2021, the MIN Graduate Center invited all doctoral students of the MIN Faculty to participate in a Welcome Night, which took place virtually for the second time. The Associate Dean for Internationalization and Promotion of Young Researchers, Mr. Gasser welcomed and introduced with an appeal for regular and proactive communication with supervisors. Afterwards, Ms. Glaubrecht informed about how to structure one's own doctoral studies and research within the framework of an Individual Development Plan (IDP), and how to use this to position oneself well for one's own career. Afterwards, participants had the opportunity to discuss their experiences and challenges with other doctoral students in small groups. The sessions focused on topics such as career planning, stress management, science communication, and getting started with the Dissertation. Afterwards, we summarized the most important take home messages in a plenary session and ended the evening in a relaxed atmosphere.

We invite you to the next Welcome Night on the 29th September 2022.

Courses on Good Scientific Practice

10.06.2024 and 11.06.2024, online – Sign up in Geventis

Meeting the standards of good scientific practice is fundamental for credible, high quality research. What does this mean? Regular courses and workshops of the MIN Graduate Center help to clarify this question, since the knowledge of the principles of good scientific practice, which are based on values such as honesty, openness and transparency, are relevant for ALL involved in research and education.

Our offers promote the guidelines for good scientific practice of the German Research Foundation and the respective bylaws of the Universität Hamburg. They welcome all doctoral students of the MIN faculty. During workshops, you will discuss Misconduct in Research, Handling Data, Publication Process and Authorship, Responsibility of Supervisors and the Supervised, Conflicts of Interest, Scientific Cooperation, and Resolving Conflicts. Sign up for good scientific practice courses to learn more about these and further topics!
