  • Successful Networking for Personal Branding (March 11, 2025) —
    As a scientist, your reputation is your personal brand. You’re 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 it’s 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.

English Academic Writing: The Ground Rules of Writing Well (April 10, 11 and 14, 2025)

Written by

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.
