Research colloquium

If you are interested in participating in the colloquium, please contact Mr. John(email).

As part of the biannual colloquium, academic work (BA, MA, dissertation, habilitation) is supervised at the following stages:

  1. First idea sketch or exposé
  2. Completed sub-chapters
  3. Final version

Experience from previous meetings has shown that it makes sense to present the status of the respective work at one of the three points mentioned. In the run-up to the presentations, it is important that the documents are sent to all participants by email in good time (see notes by email) so that there is sufficient preparation time to allow for good feedback. The presentation itself should be kept as short as possible. (about 10 to 15 minutes) so that the paper presented can be discussed afterwards. The aim of the discussion is to provide assistance in dealing with the research project. At the end of the discussion, the participants should work out together what the next concrete steps could be in order to further develop the project.

In addition to the texts, material lists and timetables should also be sent so that this can also be discussed in the colloquium.

In order to make the feedback more targeted, the individual contributions should each be commented on by a participant in the colloquium. The comments will be assigned as soon as the schedule is drawn up.

It is expressly not intended that everyone will present their work in every colloquium. The presentation should take place after consultation with Wolfgang Schroeder.

In addition to the presentation of final theses, the colloquium will include a

  1. Book presentation/ review
  2. Methods/ research approaches

is possible. A thesis paper should also be sent out before this presentation. Anyone who becomes aware of an interesting book in the field of theory of organizations, parties, associations and trade unions or would like to present a research method that is of interest to the participants is welcome to contact Wolfgang Schroeder and agree whether a presentation at the next colloquium is possible.
