Our air, soil and water as well as all plants and animals contain complex ecosystems.
This course will introduce you to various creatures colonizing the ground beneath our feet and give you the opportunity to experience methodologies and experimental strategies that are used in the natural sciences. While working in the DIY BioLab (Chair of Media Environments) you will learn how to think like a microbiologist and what it means to do scientific research. Educational objectives include literature research, experiment design, result documentation, discussion and scientific writing.
The module will be structured in a flexible way, tailored to the needs of the participants and includes lectures as well as practical work in the laboratory. Attendance during the 5 days of the course, as well as the delivery of detailed project documentation (paper, artwork, etc.) until the end of the semester is required.
The 5 day intensive course is integrated into the wider concept of the project module “Soil-Humus-Earth” (Prof. Ursula Damm) as well as the module “Raised Beds and Pets” (Mindaugas Gapsevicius). Students attending one or both of the other courses will be prioritized.
Please write a motivational letter to julian@mikrobiomik.org until 11.10.2019 – if you already worked with biology before, please include a short description of the project and your level of experience. |
