After successful completion of the course, students are able to
- actively follow presentations of scientists about their ongoing research activities, and ask relevant questions
- elaborate a concise summary on a scientific presentation
- enumerate current trends in computer science and competently engage in a discussion on them
Guest professors invited by the TU Wien Informatics Doctoral School will give a (typically) 45-minute talk about their research area, followed by a 30min discussion

Guest professors invited by the TU Wien Informatics Doctoral School will give a 45-minute talk about their research areas. Such an event typically takes 90 minutes, including welcome, talk and discussion; but depending on the specific situation this can vary.
Please visit TUWEL to:
The plan is to have at least 6 talks in total during this study year 2021/22 (one has already been in the winter term, 5 are following in the summer term).
Preferably, students attend 5 talks, choose 3 of those for their report and give a summary of at least 2 pages for each.
Students who can only attend 4 talks also pick 3 talks for their summary, but this summary must comprise at least 3 pages for each talk.
Students will be graded provided that the following requirements are fulfilled:
Talks are offered both in winter term 2021/22 and summer term 2022, and any combination of all those may be chosen (but the course will definitely end after the summer term, a further combination with talks from the winter term 22/23 will not be possible).
The reports must be written in English and in latex (a template is provided in TUWEL). The deadline for submission of the assignment is July 31st at 23:55h through TUWEL.
Please register in TISS.
