Inhalt:
Inhalt This course teaches students how to perform research work and how to publish the results. According to most Prüfungsordnungen Bachelor or Master theses have to be scientific work, and this class teaches students how to do so. The class consists of a 2 SWS lecture part and a 2 SWS exercise part. It is run as a 3h block with a short break in between. With homework and self-study, the course effort is 5 ECTS. If students pick up one of the offered research projects, total effort doubles to 10 ECTS. The research project does not require additional time in class. The lecture part covers the following topics:
Science and society
The research process
Exploratory research
Confirmatory research
Writing a thesis/paper
Scientific community
The exercise associated with the lecture involves reading, writing, and evaluating weekly homework, but no research project. Taken as lecture + exercises, student effort totals 5 ECTS. Students can pick up a research project for an additional 5 ECTS. Students perform research and write a (short) research paper. With these additional 5 ECTS of research project work, NYT can be taken as a 10 ECTS course. The first session of the winter semester 2015/16 has been recorded and can be viewed here: http://wp.me/pDU66-27S. Feel free to watch it to get an impression of the course.
