Beschreibung
The BA CDC Lab is the central study component of the CDS program, where cross-disciplinary work is practiced through both a research paper and an applied project. Building on this year’s CDS research theme, Networks, the lab offers methodological input, discussions, peer presentations, and individual mentoring. Throughout the semester and academic year, students have the opportunity to work either individually or collaboratively.
The lab will take place on Wednesday afternoons from 14:00 to 16:00 and will consist of group meetings and individual mentoring sessions.
An optional intensive kick-off session will be held on October 2–3 and is highly recommended. If you have not yet signed up for the kick-off session but would like to attend, please contact me directly.
