In our generative workshops, you can explore creative writing with a variety of topics. In each meeting, a new prompt or inspiration – a text, a photo, sounds, individual objects – will be the starting point for your writing in the meeting. This is accompanied by a series of specific, yet open questions that aim to lead you to a piece of writing at the end of the workshop.
Everyone is very welcome to join our meetings, including everyone with no experience in creative writing. The meetings do not build on each other, so you can come along to any meeting you like. We will meet online every three weeks.
Please sign up for each meeting.
After registering, you will receive an email with the Zoomlink for joining our meeting. You can register until one week before the meeting.
Global Citizenship and Sustainable Futures: Learning for Change
The International Network of Universities is launching an online program which addresses a range of areas relating to Global Citizenship and the United Nations SDGs, open to all INU member students.
The program will enable students to choose from a selection of workshop sessions, based on their areas of interest. Each session will be co-delivered by lecturers from different INU universities across the world, providing you with the opportunity to explore different perspectives and enhance your learning experience.
Develop your intercultural competence and interact with students from other INU institutions by taking part in the INU’s online program “Global Citizenship and Sustainable Futures: Learning for Change”. This program will explore what it means to be a global citizen through learning and reflecting on a range of key global issues which include:
• Borders, modern slavery and human mobility
• Peace education and reconciliation
• Climate change and social inequalities
• Food security
• Gender inequality and violence against women
• Inclusive and sustainable economic growth and consumerism
The course will be fully delivered online through a mixture of pre-recorded content, live virtual sessions, reflections and student group work/presentation.
Learning objectives:
• To gain knowledge and an understanding of current affairs, the UN Sustainable Development Goals, global issues, and trends, whilst appreciating the complexity and ever-changing nature of these topics.
• To be able to analyse and interpret information about own and other cultures and demonstrate a clear understanding of the complexity of elements important to members of one culture concerning its history, values, politics, communication styles, economy, or beliefs and practices.
• To foster civic-mindedness and a sense of societal responsibility, promoting actions and activities that are motivated by or that show concern for the public good and the humanity as a whole and behaviour that is in the best interests of the environment and society.
• Develop an understanding of and commitment to democratic principles and those of human dignity and respect, while recognising the diversity of experiences and global inequalities with regards to access to these rights and begin to suggest actions to improve this.

The aim of the writing group is to bring together and support students who are writing/starting their thesis. During an obligatory kick-off, participants learn helpful methods for writing and for giving constructive text feedback. At the end of the introduction phase, fixed small groups will be formed. These will meet weekly on Tuesdays from 2pm to 4pm. Each session consists of two parts. From 2pm to 3pm, the writing group focuses on tips for academic writing in German, before the same content is explained in English from 3pm to 4pm.
The following main topics are covered in this writing group, for example: Structuring, formulating research questions, time planning and writing difficulties. Participants receive feedback on their thoughts and writing and support in the individual writing phases. The writing group is accompanied by a member of staff from the Writing Center. He conducts the kick-off day, is present as a contact person at individual group meetings and offers individual writing advice.

Block seminar
Team competence is expected from university graduates and is a significant requirement in most professions. Scientific findings suggest that team competence cannot be learned purely theoretically and that team processes cannot be entirely controlled from the outside. For this reason, students in this seminar undergo an intensive team experience after a theoretical introduction and subsequently reflect on it.
Whether it's school, training or studying - there are always tasks that need to be completed in what is usually perceived as too little time. In this training course, you will learn how to set priorities, get to grips with distractions and interruptions, plan work tasks in a targeted manner and complete homework or exam material in a concentrated and relaxed manner.
Professional Training for Successful Job Interviews
You can, and you definitely should prepare yourself for the job interviews.
In fact, you can do it in a way that allows you to influence not only the entire course of the interview, but also its success, from its very first minutes.
During this workshop you will learn the most important moments of an interview and the techniques to strategically manage them. You will get to know the most commonly asked questions, the meaning behind them and, most importantly, you will learn - already during the workshop - how to answer them in the best possible way.
Ongoing seminar throughout the semester
Intercultural Competence is considered a key competence and future skill. However, its idea remains fuzzy. There is a variety of definitions as well as critique. Intercultural learning and cultural awareness are becoming more and more relevant, e.g. in the sustainability discourse, as challenges require collaboration and consideration from an interconnected and global perspective.In this interactive and practice-oriented seminar concepts of intercultural learning will be introduced based on theoretical approaches. At the same time we will critically discuss and challenge those concepts and explore their limitations.
