Im Rahmen einer projektfinanzierten Vortrags- und Workshopreihe für Lehrende und Mitarbeitende der Hochschulen Sachsen-Anhalts werden im Frühjahr 2025 in sechs Online-Veranstaltungen praxisnahe Herausforderungen und Potentiale generativer KI aufgezeigt. Wir schauen uns an, wie KI in Lehre und Prüfungen funktioniert und wie KI curricular verankert werden kann. Darüber hinaus werden wir uns mit der Kommunikation zwischen Lehrenden und ihren Studierenden zu diesem Thema befassen. Diese Online-Reihe ist für alle gedacht, die sich bereits mit grundlegenden Einführungen zur Thematik beschäftigt haben.
Successful Networking for Personal Branding (March 11, 2025) As a scientist, your reputation is your personal brand. Youre going to have one whether you choose to influence it in a particular direction or not. How others perceive you stems largely in part from your research results, your behaviors, and your overall actions. Just as in the business world, your personal brand is what defines how successful you can become, and its vital that you spend a portion of your resources to cultivate and protect it. In this workshop we will explore networking as an important aspect of those efforts. More information and registration

This workshop addresses junior scholars from the social sciences, economics, and the humanities who have good command of the English language, seek to improve their English writing skills, and strive to make their academic papers more idiomatic. The workshop seeks to create an awareness of the typical patterns of non-idiomatic writing to which non-native authors writing in English – and especially German-speaking academics – are prone and equip the participants with strategies to avoid these pitfalls.
The workshop will be held on three days (two days in person; a half day online, during which you will receive individual feedback). It will be conducted in English by two trainers who have a professional background in the social sciences and many years of experience in teaching English academic writing and in translating and editing academic texts by German-speaking scholars.
Poster sessions are an integral part of almost every scientific conference. Their purpose is to highlight research results, visualize them, and stimulate discussion. To draw your audience in, you need a crystal-clear message, a text format optimized for best legibility and well-chosen graphics. And above all, you need to think well through how to organize, arrange and illustrate your research content for a printed or digital poster format.
Basic rules of graphic design and layout technique will help you to present your work in a visually well-structured and compelling way. The training shows you how to present your research efficiently and provides time to put directly into practice what you have learned.
Was ist eine der wichtigsten Herausforderungen von Promovierenden? Ganz klar, das Schreiben der Arbeit.
An der MLU Halle-Wittenberg schreiben von den ca. 2000 Promovierenden nicht wenige an Ihrer Arbeit und stehen vor ähnlichen Problemen, bei denen wir uns untereinander austauschen und unterstützen sollten. Das hat uns inspiriert, als Promovierendenvertretung das erste Mal und testweise ein im März (21/ 22.3.2025) stattfindendes, sogenanntes Schreib-Retreat zu konzipieren auf dem wir für Euch zwei Angebote kombinieren möchten. 1. Das kopräsente Arbeiten (Co-Working) und Austesten von Schreibstrategien und 2. zwei kostenlose Workshops zu Themen des wissenschaftlichen Schreibens und der Stressbewältigung bzw. dem Umgang mit Scheitern während der Promotion an jeweils einem der zwei Tage.
Die folgende Veranstaltung wird für Promovierende der MLU durch die Hochschule Merseburg (HoMe) in Kooperation mit der Internationalen Graduiertenakademie durchgeführt.
Jeder Konflikt birgt die Chance auf eine Veränderung in sich und bringt die Energie für einen Wandel. Um das Potenzial eines Konflikts konstruktiv zu nutzen, ist es wichtig, ihn in seiner Dynamik besser zu verstehen und im Konfliktfall sicher und angemessen zu reagieren. Das Seminar setzt sich daher aus einer Mischung von praktischen Übungen zur Selbstreflexion, theoretischen Inputs und Analyse von ausgewählten Praxisbeispielen aus Ihrem Arbeitsalltag zusammen. Es vermittelt wichtige Verhaltens- und Kommunikationstools und erhöht dabei Ihre persönliche Konfliktlösungskompetenz.
Konflikte sind Teil von zu unserem (Arbeits-)Alltag und oft mit unangenehmen Gefühlen verbunden. Jeder Konflikt birgt die Chance auf eine Veränderung in sich und bringt die Energie für einen Wandel. Für das Verständnis eines Konfliktes werden Analysetools eingeführt, die Handlungsoptionen eröffnen.
R has become a leading statistical programming language in data science and statistics. The R software is free, highly extensible, and allows to easily produce publication-quality plots. The aim of this course is to equip participants with the basic skills to effectively use the software R, embedded in the user interface RStudio. These skills will cover data import, processing and data exploration, graphical representations with ggplot2, basic concepts of statistical inference and linear regression. All topics will be demonstrated in working examples and practiced with hands on examples.
In the first two days we are going to teach the basic functionality of R, RStudio, and ggplot2. Day three and four are dedicated to the application of statistical tests, which will be extended to linear mixed-effects models.
Leipzig University organizes a lecture series on career and everyday life in academia of postdocs. This time the topic is
How to write an academic CV
The CV is a complete summary of all of your academic achievements and can be as long as needed. Although it will grow longer as your academic career progresses, you’ll want to make sure that you include accomplishments that are relevant and important. You also want to make sure to address assessment fields that are relevant for applications to a professorship, that the CV is complete and stylistically consistent. However, there are different approaches to do so and finding the way that appeals to you personally is just as important as continuously updating your CV.
During this lunch lecture, we address these issues with the focus on academic CVs for applying for professorships in Germany. There will be a short input and enough time for discussion afterwards.
