Research has always been project-focused. However, the increasing complexity of projects and project consortia means that old approaches are no longer enough. Modern project management allows you to get the most out of your resources and to perform more research with fewer resources, at lower stress levels.

In this 1.5 day workshop you will learn:
 
To develop the goals and scope of your project, The importance of the quality – time – cost triad, How to define milestones, work packages and their interdependencies, The simple trick that changes your project from being late to being early, To handle the main communication processes effectively To clarify who does what and by when.  
This workshop is highly interactive and allows you to apply the concepts, models and tools of project management directly to your research project. In addition, you will identify the changes you want to make so that your work is more effective and enjoyable.

Please note: In addition to this workshop, KHYS offers other project management courses with different focal points, which may overlap in terms of content:
 
Getting Started. Managing your Dissertation Project Successfully (D & EN) Basics of Project Management (D & EN) Projektmanagement in der Industrie Agile Project Management (for advanced learners with prior knowledge in project management basics)  
This event is open to doctoral researchers and postdocs at KIT who are KHYS members.

Scientific Writing. Improving Your Ability to Write Scientific Texts in English (two-day) [ON-SITE WORKSHOP]
Workshop
Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT)
Bldg. 8.03, room 214
Matthew Shimohara, Sprachenzentrum (SPZ)

The event will be held in English and run for two days, on February 17 and 19, 2025.
 
This workshop focuses on the language you use when writing scientific papers. Our aim is to improve your writing by talking about conventions in the field, producing your own texts and discussing further questions which arise whilst writing.
 
We start by briefly discussing the content of each section of a paper (Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion). As a group we will develop guidelines that can be used when writing your own text. Next, we will look at authentic sample texts to talk about conventions of style and possibly grammar. We will pay special attention to language patterns in specific subject areas as these tend to vary.
 
We will use another set of texts to practice editing. Then, you will be asked to apply your skills and write short texts of your own, e.g. a project summary, a critical review and a results section. You will receive feedback on your writing style and use of language. As questions related to language use, punctuation and grammar arise, we will discuss them.
 
By the end of the course, you will improve your ability to write about your research and comment on other writers’ research in English. You will sharpen your editing skills and develop a sense for appropriate style in a scientific text.
 
To decide whether this workshop is suitable for you, please consider the following information: 
 
Language requirements: This EFL course is designed for English speakers of other languages, i.e. non-native speakers of English who have a mid to upper range of the Common European Frame of Reference (CEFR B2 - C1). We recommend that you take our placement test on ILIAS before starting the course. If your language level is B1, the course might seem rather challenging (and go a bit fast). If your language level is C2, keep in mind that we deal with issues of grammar and syntax that might seem simple to you. (Information on how to access the test can be found below.)
 
Topics not covered in the workshop: This course does not cover certain related aspects of preparing scientific manuscripts, such as the submission, review and publication of a paper. We also do not cover citation styles due to the wide variety of styles and requirements for different fields of science.
 
Course materials will be distributed on ILIAS.
 
Instructions for taking the placement test and a link can be found here:
https://www.spz.kit.edu/334.php

You need an SCC account to take our placement test. If you do not have an SCC account, please contact the English Department of the Language Center (Sprachenzentrum) under englisch∂spz kit edu 

This event is open to doctoral researchers and postdocs at KIT who are KHYS members. If you are currently not yet a member of KHYS, you can register here.
 
The event will be held in English and run for two days, on February 17 and 19, 2025.
 
If you are unable to attend an event, please inform us promptly via e-mail (at least 2 weeks prior to the start of the course). 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!

Persönliche Standortbestimmung zur Karriereorientierung. Was kann ich und wo will ich hin? [PRÄSENZ WORKSHOP]
Workshop
Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT)
Geb. 50.41, Raum 145/146 (1. OG)
Patrizia Köhler, Personalentwicklung und Berufliche Ausbildung (PEBA)

Im Rahmen einer persönlichen Standortbestimmung nehmen Sie sich Zeit, Ihre aktuelle berufliche und private Situation bewusst zu reflektieren. Sie befassen sich dabei mit Ihren persönlichen Zielen und Wünschen und leiten daraus konkrete Schritte für Ihre weitere Karriere- und Kompetenzentwicklung ab.
 
Was habe ich bereits erreicht? Welche Kompetenzen zeichnen mich besonders aus? Worin liegen meine Stärken? Was ist mir wichtig? Wie stelle ich mir eine gelingende Zukunft vor?
 
In der Veranstaltung geht es zunächst darum, den derzeitigen Status Quo genauer zu beleuchten und ein Verständnis für Ihre gegenwärtige Situation zu generieren. Eine solche Bestandsaufnahme hilft Ihnen, Ihre Lebens- und Karriereplanung fokussiert zu gestalten, eine Reflexionsgrundlage für Ihre längerfristigen beruflichen und privaten Entscheidungen zu erstellen sowie an den eigenen Entwicklungsfeldern zielgerichtet zu arbeiten.
 
Auf diese Weise können Sie aus ganzheitlicher Perspektive Ziele für Ihre weitere Karriereplanung entwickeln und erste konkrete Schritte ableiten.
 
Bitte beachten Sie, dass eine Standortbestimmung keine individuelle Berufs- oder Karriereberatung leisten kann. Zur weiteren Karriereplanung bietet das KHYS folgende Workshops an:
After the Doctorate. Career Planning for Doctoral Researchers How to Shape Your Future. Career Planning for Postdocs  
Die Veranstaltung richtet sich an Promovierende und Postdocs am KIT (Mitglieder des KHYS). Wenn Sie derzeit noch kein Mitglied bei KHYS sind, können Sie sich hier registrieren.
 
Bitte melden Sie sich frühzeitig per E-Mail ab, wenn Sie nicht an einer Veranstaltung teilnehmen können. Damit können Personen von der Warteliste nachrücken und Sie helfen uns, die Qualität des Weiterbildungsprogramms aufrecht zu erhalten. Vielen Dank!
