Welcome Event for Doctoral Researchers
Seminar room A+B, Bldg. 30.95
https://www.kit.edu/campusplan/?id=30.95

Have you just started your doctoral research period? And would like to know more about the services offered at KIT for doctoral researchers? Then come and join other German and international KIT PhD students at the welcome event for doctoral researchers. In a presentation, we will give you plenty of information on how to best profit from the doctoral research period (including information on research stays abroad and services offered at KIT). In addition, there will be two brief testimonials by more advanced fellow researchers. They will share their experiences with you concerning doing the PhD at KIT and will be happy to answer your questions. At the end of the English-language event, there will be time for some networking during a get-together involving snacks and drinks.

We would in particular like to welcome those who have recently started their doctorate – however, the event is open to all German and international KIT doctoral researchers.

The Welcome Event takes place four times a year.

Torsten Rother, Sprechwege Kommunikationstraining und -beratung

Die Veranstaltung findet an zwei Tagen statt, am 25. und 26. Juni 2024.
 
Der letzte große Meilenstein der Promotion ist die mündliche Verteidigung der Arbeit, die besondere kommunikative Herausforderungen mit sich bringt. Dieses Training richtet sich an Promovierende, die sich intensiv auf ihre Disputation vorbereiten wollen.
 
Der thematische Schwerpunkt des Workshops widmet sich der Fragerunde innerhalb der Prüfung: Wie gehe ich mit schwierigen Fragen um? Wie reagiere ich auf kritische bis provozierende Fragen? Wie kann ich damit umgehen, wenn ich die Antwort auf eine Frage nicht weiß? Was mache ich bei einem „Black-Out“?
 
Zu Beginn des Workshops verschaffen wir uns einen Überblick über Ablauf und Bedeutung einer Disputation. Wir sammeln Fragen, die typischerweise in Disputationen auftreten.
 
Im Anschluss werden fünf Strategien für eine überzeugende argumentative sowie rhetorische Positionierung während der Disputation vermittelt. Diese werden in Einzel- und Gruppenarbeit trainiert sowie im wichtigsten Bestandteil des Workshops – den Disputations-Simulationen – von den Promovierenden aktiv umgesetzt. Bei Bedarf kann zudem der Umgang mit Lampenfieber thematisiert werden.
 
Workshop Inhalte:
Sie haben einen Überblick über Ablauf, Bedeutung und Funktion einer Disputation. Sie kennen typische Fragen der Prüfungskommission. Sie können auf kritische bis provozierende Fragen souverän reagieren. Sie haben Vorbereitungswerkzeuge für erwartbare Fragen zu Ihrem Thema. Sie haben einen Überblick über Ihre Stärken und Entwicklungsmöglichkeiten im Vortrag und insbesondere in der Fragerunde. Umgang mit Stress, Stressbewältigungstechniken.  
Die Veranstaltung richtet sich an Promovierende am KIT (Mitglieder des KHYS).
 
Die Veranstaltung findet an zwei Tagen statt, am 25. und 26. Juni 2024.
 
Bitte melden Sie sich frühzeitig per E-Mail ab, wenn Sie nicht an einer Veranstaltung teilnehmen können. Damit können Personen von der Warteliste nachrücken und Sie helfen uns, die Qualität des Weiterbildungsprogramms aufrecht zu erhalten. Vielen Dank!

Statistical Methods for Research [E-LEARNING]
e-learning

You can access the e-learning from April 10, 2024 until June 28, 2024.
 
Statistical Methods for Research is targeted at young scientists who require a foundation course in statistics, specifically in the quantification of variability, providing students with the practical techniques they will need to conduct statistical analysis at postgraduate level and beyond. This course takes a cross-disciplinary approach and is compatible with all major statistics packages such as SPSS, GenStat, Minitab and Stata. It is rich with scenarios, worked examples, practical applications and interactive statistical models.
 
The course comprises the presentation of concepts, individual computer-based exercises for consolidation and other interactive learning activities. A major component of the course is analysing data through the use of mainstream statistics packages. This will enable students to gain statistical skills commonly used today in evidence-based decision making, driven by data gathered during the research process, such as the use of estimates, confidence intervals and hypothesis tests, and the building of statistical models. The following four areas are included in the course:
• Describing data well: Descriptive statistics
• Making good generalisations: Inferential statistics
• Formulating and testing statistical hypotheses
• Fitting appropriate statistical models and interpreting their output.
 
The course contains different tracks for the disciplines of Engineering, Natural Sciences, Biomedical Sciences, Social Sciences and Business.
 
Statistical Methods for Research is based on a highly successful course from the University of Reading which has recorded an average improvement of 125% in student’s performances.
