The Berlin University Alliance (BUA) is an alliance of Freie Universität Berlin, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Technische Universität Berlin and Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin. Together, they are pursuing the goal of creating and shaping an integrated research space in Berlin. This alliance aims to establish Berlin as a leading international science location. All workshops and events offered by the Graduate Studies Support Program are funded by the BUA and therefore free of charge.  

For this event, the hygiene concept in the rooms of Hittorfstr. 16 must be followed.

 

Participation

Doctoral researchers (all disciplines) of the Berlin University Alliance.

This workshop is designed to present project management tools to academics and researchers working on a complex research project (and is primarily designed for individual researchers with limited or no staffing resources).

Before booking a workshop, please make sure that you can attend for the entire duration. Please check our terms and conditions.   

 

Objectives

In this workshop, we’ll explore how to apply project management tools effectively to help you man-age your doctoral project and achieve your goals. We’ll learn what project management is and how to use project management tools, and examine how your goals play a role in successful project de-sign and management. We'll explore project planning and how to break down the enormous task of the doctoral project into manageable pieces. In interactive activities with your peers, you’ll discover how using project management strategies can help you achieve your goals while staying motivated and maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
