The topics and the exact schedule will be announced on the Department's website well in advance. In principle, this seminar is organized in the style of a scientific conference. Firstly, there will be two seminar days with kick-off and introductions to literature research, LaTeX/Overleaf, data visualization and presentation techniques. All participants must write a scientific paper on the assigned topics and submit these papers by the first draft deadline. After that, the peer review phase of the papers will begin and each paper will be assigned to at least two other participants who will have to review the papers. Each participant of the event will have to review 2-3 other papers. After the review phase, the reviews must be submitted to the supervisors who will distribute them to the authors of the papers. After that, authors have time to improve their papers based on the feedback from the reviews before they have to submit their final (camera-ready) version of the paper. At the end of the semester, the "conference" is held with the final presentations of the participants. Participation in discussions of other papers is elementary.
