After successful completion of the course, students are able to know about current research directions in the field of biotechnology and bioanalytics, discuss them and critically examine them. They are able to present the results achieved in their final theses to a broader public within the framework of the seminar and to gain new insights for their work on the basis of constructive criticism.

Current research topis and questions in the field of biotechnology and bioanalytics will be presented by internal and external guest lecturers. Presentation of the results of the dissertations and diploma theses in the field of biotechnology and bioanalytics.

Design of the presentation of the final paper, presentation of the final paper, discussion of current research.

The document to confirm attendance at each lecture can be found in TISS.
