Under the guidance of Dr. Daniel Friedrich, participants engaged intensively with the fundamentals of project planning and time management – and applied what they learned directly to their own doctoral projects.

The interactive workshop not only provided valuable impetus for a structured start to doctoral studies, but also offered an opportunity to exchange ideas with other doctoral candidates.
