Date
October 6, 2009
Duration
All day
If you are engaged in interdisciplinary research, this training is ideal for you. Within one day, you get introduced to the most important skills that help you reach integration across disciplines and your project goals. We can advise training participants how to avoid the most common pitfalls of interdisciplinary research and to make interdisciplinary research a success.

The training covers the most important aspects of interdisciplinary research cooperation. In particular, the training aims are:
You will understand the key requirements for interdisciplinary research;
You become aware of the differences among disciplines (natural sciences, social sciences, humanities) and can thus make realistic expectations towards cooperation across disciplinary boundaries;
You learn how to overcome common barriers to integration;
You know how to create an atmosphere of trust and respect;
You learn how to communicate effectively so that colleagues from other disciplines understand you;
You set up an Integration Implementation Plan;
You plan your project outcomes (scientific, application, education);
You learn how to organize excellent interdisciplinary publications.


The training is meant for participants of interdisciplinary projects, leaders of interdisciplinary projects, PhD students, research schools/graduate schools, and project teams.
