In the modules of the longitudinal strand Scientific Thinking and Action (WDH), students learn basic scientific working and thinking methods as well as medical-scientific skills. This enables students to critically evaluate scientific information and sources and apply them to medical practice on a case-by-case basis. The dovetailing of the content with the parallel study content of the thematic block and KDH modules was designed in cooperation with representatives of the relevant specialist disciplines.
While the modules in the first stage of the programme focus more on basic scientific working and thinking methods, the modules in the second stage focus on planning, carrying out and presenting your own research projects.
The research project, which students complete in the second stage of the programme, is completed within 12 weeks. This must be registered with the examination office before the start date. Students have the opportunity to work on a selected research topic and are guided through the research process by supervisors. They exchange ideas with their fellow students in colloquia and present their research findings in the form of a poster at the Medical School OWL's Research Day.
The longitudinal strand Scientific Thinking and Action is coordinated by Dr Karoline Malchus and Dr Melanie Brand, who you are welcome to contact if you have any questions.
