Writing a scientific paper includes researching relevant literature. In the "Fit for the Thesis" course, we will show you how to plan, conduct, and evaluate the research for your thesis.
These topics are the main focus:
- Analysis of one's own literature needs

- Search in scientific search engines
- Search strategies
- Evaluating the sources found
- Securing the found sources
