Objectives/ aim
During the traineeship, students become acquainted with their future occupation by participating in scientific research. They conduct research on an individual basis to find answers to research questions and gain insight into their field of study. Moreover, the students learn how new scientific insights enable the exploration of new methods and how problems can be solved. Furthermore, they learn to participate in a research team and to engage in departmental and laboratory consultations on the progress of the research project.
