Recurring Events
IRTG workshops
Every year, a three-day workshop is designed and organized by the PhD students themselves without any influence of the PIs so as to strengthen self-organization and collaboration skills of the students. They decide on topics and talks and on whom to invite as external speakers and participants.
The first Annual IRTG Workshop took place at the CVJM-Bildungsstätte Bundeshöhe in Wuppertal from November 3-5, 2025. The three days event included poster presentations of the PhD students and postdocs of the CRC, each with their unique research topic and enthusiasm. As special guests, Dr. Marvin Geyik from d-fine, gave a talk on non-academic career planning with insights from a professional/corporate job experience, Dr. Sven Karbach from the University of Amsterdam focused in his talk on the life in academia and what to expect as PhD students and as postdocs, and Dr. Frederico Califano from University of Twente, gave a talk on the physical intuition behind port-Hamiltonian systems.
The second IRTG workshop will take place November 16-19 2026 at the Rheinhotel Vier Jahreszeiten in Bad Breisig.
