The IMPRS seminar provides a central meeting opportunity
for all IMPRS students in order to exchange ideas and experience from different
research areas.
In the winter term, the IMPRS seminar is held as a "Oberseminar", ie. as literature seminar with presentations of current research highlights and of fundamental papers in the astrophysics literature. In the summer term, the IMPRS seminar is held as an advanced research seminar("Fortgeschrittenenseminar") with students presentating their ongoing thesis projects. After the 1st academic year of an IMPRS generation, the IMPRS seminar continues in the 2nd year as a seminar workshop - an external retreat of 3-4 days during which students present an update of their thesis projects. Visitors are welcome! The seminar is open for non-IMPRS students. |
