Scientific Café with a Guest – Developing an Integrated Research Profile
A Digital Event for PhD Candidates and Postdocs
The Scientific Café for PhD candidates and postdocs of the University of Koblenz-Landau intends to encourage the exchange with other researchers and PhD candidates and aims to improve both the academic English and presentation skills for the own research. In addition, advanced researchers are invited regularly to give an insight in their own research and work.
This semester the guest of the Scientific Café is Professor Dr. Susan Williams from the Center for Enterprise Information Research, Faculty of Informatics. She will talk about developing an integrated research profile. For that purpose, Boyer's model of scholarship will be examined in this presentation. He defines four types of academic attainments: discovery, integration, application, and teaching. Prof. Williams will begin by presenting how these categories have shaped her thinking about research and her own research profile. This will then be followed by an interactive activity that encourages participants to think about the shaping of their own research and research priorities.
All participants are invited to join the discussion following the presentation.
In cooperation with STIBET funded by the DAAD with financial means of the German Federal Foreign Office
