Proseminar Fall 2025
The Institute offers one Proseminar in Theoretical Physics during the Fall Semester 2025. The number of participants is limited, and places will not be assigned on a "first come first serve" basis.
Registration and topic assignment
All Master and Bachelor students (sixth semester) will be informed by email from the studies secretary beginning July 9, 2025.
If you are interested in taking the proseminar in HS25, please register before Friday August 1, 2025.

The assignment of the individual proseminar topics to the registered participants will take place in a meeting, the date of which has not yet been determined. The registered students will be contacted with more details by the proseminar lecturer. The meeting will take place before the start of the semester and may be held via Zoom.
Format
The student prepares a presentation of around, but not more than, one hour duration, on a specific topic assigned in advance. A tutor from the Institute of Theoretical Physics will provide literature and give a feedback on the student's progress. Students keep the tutor informed about their work in weekly meetings, starting (at least) 3 weeks before the date of the final presentation.
Requirements for passing the module
- The student gives a pedagogical talk on the assigned topic, demonstrating a firm understanding of the subject. The presentation is
shown to the tutor a week in advance.
- A written scientific report in english is handed in 4 weeks after the presentation. This report covers the presented material.
- The presence of the student is required in at least 80% of sessions.
