In the winter semester, students from all schools can once again attend free workshops as part of the KoSeKo (Kooperation Selbstlernkompetenz = cooperation for self-study skills) program, which teaches basic skills for successful studies. The skills you acquire will help you after complete your studies as well, as the modern workplace requires continuous professional development. With the exception of Literature Research and Scientific Writing, at present they are only available in German.
