Kurzbeschreibung | The course provides a platform for the investigation, presentation and discussion of a topic with relevance to the field of pharmaceutical sciences. Students work in small groups on a chosen topic, they write a mini-review and present their work on a one day symposium. | ||||
Lernziel | The main objectives of this course are: - students develop their scientific reflection (Critical Thinking) and working skills by working independently on a relevant pharmaceutical topic - students gain in-depth knowledge of the topic investigated - students train their scientific writing and presentation skills - students train their ability to plan a project and work in a team | ||||
Inhalt | The Course Drug Seminar takes place during the first 7 weeks of the 1. Master semester. It is a compulsory course of the MSc Pharmacy curriculum and an elective course in the MSc PharmSciences. The course provides a platform for the investigation, presentation and discussion of a topic with relevance to the field of pharmaceutical sciences. During the course, students work in small teams on a topic of their choice and elaborate a written mini-review and an oral presentation. Each team is tutored by a lecturer of the Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences. The work is mainly based on literature search / review, but may also involve conducting interviews or site visits, if appropriate. The final presentations of all groups will take place in the framework of a dedicated Symposium held in the middle of the semester. | ||||
Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Only for students of MSc Pharmacy and MSc Pharmaceutical Sciences. | ||||
