This course identifies the “kappe” as both a distinct and critically important element of the full body of work in an article-based PhD dissertation. It offers conceptual and practical perspectives on how to position the “kappe” and how to write it.
Do you want to contribute to a more welcoming and supportive work environment in academia? Curious about how diversity can strengthen collaboration and create better workplaces? Or maybe you want practical tools to recognize and reduce biases in everyday situations? Then this workshop is for you.
Academic workplaces are diverse, but unconscious biases and structural barriers can still affect collaboration, decision-making, and career opportunities. In this workshop, we will explore why diversity matters, how biases shape our interactions, and what you can do to create a fair, respectful and innovative work environment.
Learn how to clearly communicate complicated concepts while talking to different crowds.
Learn how to turn your research into compelling stories that spark curiosity, connect with audiences, and leave a lasting impression
Imposter syndrome is a widespread phenomenon in academia, but what is it and how can you avoid being impeded by it??
Do you struggle with the writing process, have a paper you are currently working on, or just want to get a little better at academic writing? This is the workshop for you! This workshop will focus on a few essential skills in writing research papers: crafting a coherent argument for your paper, articulating it, and ensuring that it comes out clearly through your writing.
Should you focus on publishing in high impact journals or on data sharing? In this talk, we will present a changing assessment system that introduces new ways of rewarding and recognizing academic work around the world.
Join us for an engaging conversation with distinguished alumni as they share insights, career journeys, and practical advice for the next generation. Hear how their experiences shaped their paths — and get a straight answer to a common question: do you really have to become a professor to succeed?
This talk is about the skills needed to give a good presentation. I focus especially on certain aspects of public speaking that we academics often overlook, including public speaking aversion and anxiety, preparations, the use of voice and body, as well as the difference between writing and speaking.
Lunch will be served from 12:00 PM to 12:45 PM
This session dives into how key design principles can transform the clarity and impact of your presentations. We’ll explore visual hierarchy, layout, spacing, alignment, and how to reduce clutter so your core message stands out. You’ll learn how design cues guide attention, how images support understanding, and how small design choices change what your audience notices and remembers.
By the end, you’ll be able to structure your slides, so they work with you, not against you.
