In the spring semester 2024, Prof. Thier offers you the opportunity to present your projects for discussion at the doctoral and habilitation colloquium for legal history, canon law, legal theory and private law. The aim is to promote networking between doctoral and post-doctoral students.

The date of the event and further information on the registration procedure will be communicated separately. An invitation will be sent to all participating doctoral and post-doctoral students of law.

The colloquium takes place in presence under the direction of Prof. Thier. In exceptional cases, a presentation via Zoom is also possible. No completed work or texts ready for publication are expected for participation in the colloquium. Instead, a 20-minute presentation is expected, in which the topic, difficulties, open questions or (re-)paths of your project are discussed. In addition to the topic, the chosen approach and the sources, the initial working hypotheses should also be discussed. After the presentation, there will also be a comprehensive 20-minutes discussion in which the presented topics and open points will be discussed in more detail.

6 ECTS points are awarded for successful participation in this course. The assessment is based on the presentation and active participation in the discussion; grades are not rewarded.

In order to participate in the event, please let Ms. Janice Trachsel know by May 17, 2024 whether we can expect your participation and, if applicable the presentation of your project.

Ms. Trachsel will then contact you by e-mail and inform you about further details. Please include the topic of your project, your matriculation number and your contact details. It would also be helpful for our preparations if you could let us know what stage you are at in your doctoral studies (or your habilitation project).

If the number of applications exceeds the number of places available decisions will be made according to the priority principle.
