This 'Masterpflichtseminar' is addressed specifically to master students, who intend to obtain the mantadory 'MVSem' certificate required for master studies. It is organised as a journal club, where every topic usually consists of a seminar talk by the student presenting one or more recent research papers. An additional written report of the presentation is required.
Please register early in order to facilitate the planning.
