Description

What’s the IP Seminar?
IP-workshops are designed according to the principle “experts meet experts”. They comprise 10 workdays and feature a very intensive participation of students. The students acquire the essential aspects of the topic of the seminary within a preparation course at their home university and prepare a presentation. The academic input is completed by the experts’ presentations. On this basis the different viewpoints of the representatives of the participating universities are illustrated and during the workshop the nationally mixed workgroups discuss solutions to the problems and create a report comprising the results thereof.
The concept of the Intensive Programme offers very good conditions for an intensive exchange between lecturers and students of different countries. Besides the technical discussions, especially insights into the specific academic practices (e.g. the way students and lecturers are dealing with each other) and standards (competences of presentation and communication as well as breadth and depth of the students’ technical knowledge) are helpful to receive impulses for the own university and the personal design of one’s role as lecturer.
