Brown Bag Seminar

In this doctoral seminar, doctoral students from the University of Hohenheim can present their ongoing work and get feedback from other doctoral students and faculty members. Presented work can either be empirical or theoretical, but should have an economic focus. Note that the emphasis of this seminar is on informal debate and an exchange of views and ideas. The presentation of preliminary research ideas is just as welcome as the presentation of full-fledged papers. This seminar can also act as a platform to prepare doctoral students for a conference presentation or for their thesis defense. Finally, with this seminar, students and faculty members stay up to date about the research taking place in our faculty.

Summer term 2024

The Brown Bag Seminar this summer was the perfect opportunity for exchanging thoughts, networking and getting to know each other better.

The seminar have again taken place as a block seminar; this year at the Tagungszentrum der Landeszentrale für Politische Bildung in Bad Urach: Tuesday, June 25  to Wednesday, June 26, 2024. It was the perfect opportunity to present new ideas or the results of the ongoing research of qour young scientists. Also important was the lively informal exchange about the own research and that of the others during the meals and recreational activities. The seminar offers a great opportunity to get deeper insights into the research activities of the others and to gain inspiration for your own research.
