This module introduces the principles of Good Research Practice (GRP) and responsible scientific work. Students engage with the DFG Guidelines, research integrity, authorship and collaboration, Open Science, publishing and peer review, as well as the responsible use of AI in research.
A further focus is on translating these principles into research practice. Students learn how to develop a research proposal, including the formulation of research questions and objectives, the theoretical and methodological rationale, research design, ethical considerations, data management, and principles of transparent and reproducible research.
These skills are also highly relevant beyond academia. The ability to develop a well-founded proposal, justify methodological choices, and communicate expected outcomes is valuable in many professional contexts – for example, when proposing and planning an evidence-based innovation or organizational project to management or external stakeholders.
Throughout the module, students critically reflect on responsible research practices and apply them to their own research projects.
