International Science Day 2023 15.06.2023, 9:00 a.m. -3:30 p.m

The International Office and the Center for International Teacher Education (CITE) invite you to the second International Science Day on Thursday, 15.06.2023 from 9:00 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.:

"Conceiving , Implementing Successfully International Projects and Ensuring Sustainability".

Last year, the event took place under the title "Conceiving, applying for and successfully implementing international projects". At the International Science Day 2023, you will inform your colleagues and the university public about how your projects have developed, whether and how they were completed and/or how the sustainability is ensured. At our International Science Day 2023, we would also like to give new project leaders and staff the opportunity to present current international research and cooperation projects, funded by the ERASMUS+ programme or the DAAD, to colleagues and the university public.

Ten to eleven short presentations (lightning talks) of 20 minutes are planned.

Informal talks will give you the opportunity to talk to other members of the university about your international projects and beyond, and to network.

The "International Science Day 2022" on 22.06.2022, together with the "International Science Slam 2022", marked the start of the "International Days" for networking the university's international research players. The "International Days" are to be continued in different formats at the university in the future.

On Wednesday, 22 June 2022 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., the International Office of the Heidelberg University of Education, together with the Center for International Teacher Education, organised the "International Science Day 2022" in the auditorium under the title "Conceiving, applying for and successfully implementing international projects" with presentations of international projects and an exchange of best practice on successful application and implementation. After an introduction by Akad. Dir. Henrike Schön, Prof. Dr. Christian Spannagel emphasised the fundamentally international character of research and science in his welcome address. The participants were able to find out about the possibilities of applying for and receiving funding. A poster presentation with excerpts from this year's daktylos "Education Space Europe" gave further insights into the international project work at the university.

Science, but understandable: The Center for International Teacher Education and the Transfer Center of Heidelberg University of Education invited to the hybrid "International Science Slam 2022" on 22.06.2022 from 16:00 to 18:00 in the auditorium of the old building of the university.

What is a science slam? Doctoral students take centre stage. They are given a stage and 10 minutes to talk about their research. The Science Slam is not about dry statistics and complex meta-studies, but about enthusiasm for science with a twinkle in the eye.

Philipp Schrögel from the Center for Apocalyptic and Post-Apocalyptic Studies (CAPAS) at Heidelberg University gave an insight into modern forms of science communication. Max Wetterauer from the Transfer Centre then led through the entertaining afternoon with slams of 12 minutes on a wide variety of research topics.
