The Project Management "PL special 2025" seminar is designed to provide basic methodological skills for project and time management. You will work in a group of four physics students to plan, carry out, analyse and present a physics-related project. The projects to be carried out are all related to our physics degree programme and make use of your expertise as Bachelor graduates. We have compiled a long list of project proposals that are particularly suitable. One of those projects has to be chosen.
The projects are primarily concerned with learning the interdisciplinary competences that will be required later in your professional life - but with us in a context of physics.
You will manage and monitor the whole process starting from the project initiation (determination of the project topics), the project planning, project conduction to its final evaluation.
You as Project Leaders (PL) will be in charge of following tasks over the course:
- Specify a given project and presentation of a feasibility study in form of a pitch
- Creating and defending the exposes (detailed description of the planned project)
- Monitoring and controlling of the project work
- Constructive work in a team of four students
- Creating and defending intermediate reports
- Creating and defending final report
