Note: Doctoral students at the doctoral centers in Saxony-Anhalt should note that, according to the doctoral regulations of the IWIT, Life Science, Architecture & Design Research, and Environment and Technology doctoral centers, they must provide proof of attendance at courses on “good scientific practice.” This workshop can count toward that requirement. More information can be found here. This online course is Focus Module 3 [GWP FM 3]. For recognition under the doctoral regulations, participants must complete two additional modules from the following selection (see graphic). Dates for these will be announced in the Graduate Academy’s calendar of events.
