Colleges and universities often work together with other social factors. Transdisciplinary research focuses on developing questions with regard to social challenges and by involving non-scientific stakeholders. It is not only in these projects that the questions arise as to what remains and what was initiated by the project work.

This research seminar brings together three approaches to impact orientation and considers, among other things, the questions of how impact can be determined, how impact orientation can be integrated into projects and what ways there are to make the effects visible.

The seminar will be held in German and English.

Speakers: Prof. Dr. Dr. Martina Sch?fer (TU Berlin); Dr. Kathryn Watson (University of Leeds); Dr. Christoph K?ller (G?rgen & K?ller)
