Enrolment before the start of the respective semester. The corresponding link for enrolment will be announced in good time via news entry. Shortly after the end of the enrolment period, the participants and, if applicable, those moving up (waiting list) will be notified.

Examination performance/certificate of completion

The seminar participants write a seminar paper of 14-16 pages individually or 24-27 pages in groups of two. They then present and defend the results of their work. The knowledge from regular courses is to be applied and deepened.

A given objective is worked on scientifically, problem-related and independently. The experience gained should prepare the students for the Master's thesis. The presentation and discussion of the results serve to improve presentation and discussion skills and should thus prepare the students for similar situations in business practice.

For further information (especially on the design of seminar papers), please refer to the guidelines for writing scientific papers at the Group for Sustainable Production and Logistics Management in the Moodle course of your main seminar.

Both the framework topic and the respective topics to be worked on change from semester to semester and are announced in good time before registration for the seminar. The main topic is usually already fixed at the end of the lecture period of the previous semester.
