The Integrated Research Training Group structures the advanced training of doctoral students and postdocs. To this end, we offer an extensive workshop program for the development of research- and career-related as well as personal skills, consulting, networking and mentoring. We will also organize events such as writing ashrams and conferences. A central focus is on the preparation for and support of interdisciplinary research.

Here we provide all members of the Integrated Research Training Group with information. Please check back from time to time!

Presentation Coaching

We offer presentation coachings in small groups for those of you who plan to attend conferences. The general idea of the format is this: You can perform your presentation beforehand in front of other RTG members, who function as a nice and benevolent audience. The others will give structured peer feedback on your performance (speaking in front of others, slides, presentation structure etc.), so that you can reflect on things to keep and things to change for your actual presentation at the conference.

If you do not plan not present at conferences yet, giving peer feedback is a nice opportunity to watch and learn from others.

For arranging a presentation coaching session, we need at last five persons: two or more presenters and three or more peer feedback givers. Please contact us, if you want to arrange a presentation coaching and tell us your desired time slot and the names of those who will be attending: rtg@trr318.uni-paderborn.de.

This workshop is a step in preparation for leading one´s own research group with a focus on mutlidisciplinary teams and cross-cultural differences in understanding of leadership. It is in planning for September 2022, further information will follow!
