Seminar Paper

Participants are expected to write a paper on their subject of 40‘000-50‘000 signs (ca. 13-17 pages, whenever possible before the seminar in Vienna). They will present their subject at the seminar and participate actively in the discussions.

Papers for the «Secret Seminar» can be handed in any time before or after the seminar. Please note that the paper must be handed in at least one month before any grades need to be entered. Handing in an electronic version to gerhard.fiolka@unifr.ch is sufficient.

Papers for the seminar in Vienna need to be in english. Papers for the «Secret Seminar» can be handed in in other languages (e.g. german, french) as well.

Successful participants will be awarded 5 ECTS for the seminar (art. 13a RRS/RED).

Participants‘ work will be assessed based on their seminar paper and the oral presentation at the seminar.

Provided the paper is handed in before the seminar in Vienna grades should be available for the 2nd exam session 2024. Papers can also be handed in later.
