Die wissenschaftliche Suchmaschine Google Scholar [ONLINE INFORMATIONSVERANSTALTUNG]
Informationsveranstaltung
Online
Sarah Schenkel, KIT-Bibliothek
Google Scholar hat sich zu einer ernsthaften Alternative zu Literaturdatenbanken wie ‘Web of Science’ oder ‘Scopus’ entwickelt. Die spezielle Suchmaschine für wissenschaftliche Quellen, v.a. Zeitschriftenaufsätze, wird mittlerweile viel genutzt. Im Kurs werden die Suchmöglichkeiten von Google Scholar vorgestellt, Wege zur effizienten Nutzung gezeigt und die Stärken und Schwächen der Suchmaschine erläutert.Google Scholar hat sich zu einer ernsthaften Alternative zu Literaturdatenbanken wie ‘Web of Science’ oder ‘Scopus’ entwickelt.

Applications and Interviews in Academia using AI-Assistants (two-day) [ONLINE WORKSHOP]
Online Seminar
Online
Dr. Daniel Mertens, Schiller & Mertens GbR, Scientists Need More
The event will be held in English and run for two days, on December 10 and 11, 2024.
This event helps postdocs and advanced doctoral researchers to prepare for the academic labour market and improve their application and interview skills with modern AI tools.
Even if postdocs have already been working in an academic environment since their studies and can well imagine a further academic career, it is often unclear what is expected in application letters and interviews for academic positions, how the application process works and how applicants can ideally prepare and present themselves.
Over the course of two half days, postdocs will learn how to identify job options, optimise their application material and prepare for interviews. Special attention will also be paid to how artificial intelligence (AI) can be used effectively in these steps. The workshop therefore also offers practical exercises and live demonstrations of various AI tools.
The aim is to prepare young researchers to present themselves confidently and professionally, especially on the academic labour market.
Participants should bring current job offers and, possibly, application documents to improve them during the event and receive direct feedback. Interview exercises can be carried out and optionally recorded (at the wish of the participants).
This event is open to doctoral researchers and postdocs at KIT who are KHYS members.
The event will be held in English and run for two days, on December 10 and 11, 2024.
Technical requirements: To participate in this event, you need a stable internet connection, a webcam and a microphone. Participants will receive further detailed information regarding the online-platform prior to the event.
If you are unable to attend an event, please inform us promptly via e-mail. This way you are allowing your colleagues the opportunity to participate and you help us to maintain the quality of our Further Education Program. Thank you!

Personal Roadmap for Career Orientation. What Skills Do I Have and Where Do I Want to Go? [ON-SITE WORKSHOP]
Workshop
Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT)
Bldg. 50.41, seminar room 145/146
Bldg. 50.41, seminar room 145/146
Verena Landgrebe, Patrizia Köhler, Human Resources Development and Vocational Training (PEBA)
As part of a personal roadmap, you have the opportunity to consciously reflect on your current professional and private situation. You will look at your personal goals and wishes and derive concrete steps for your further career and skills development.
What have I already achieved? What skills particularly characterize me? What are my strengths? What is important to me? How do I visualize a successful future?
The first aim of the event is to take a closer look at the current status quo and generate an understanding of your present situation. Taking stock in this way will help you to take a focused approach to your life and career planning, create a basis for reflection for your longer-term professional and private decisions and work on your individual areas of development in a targeted manner.
In this way, you can develop goals for your further career planning from a holistic perspective and derive the first specific steps.
Please note that a career assessment cannot provide individual career counselling. KHYS offers the following workshops for further career planning:
Karriereentscheidungen treffen. Kriterien und Methoden für die Auswahl beruflicher Optionen Nach der Promotion. Karriereoptionen und Bewerbungsstrategien Postdoc: Ja oder Nein? How to Shape Your Future. Career Planning for Postdocs
This event is open to doctoral researchers and postdocs at KIT who are KHYS members.
