Scientific research builds on the state of the art in a field of research and therefore begins with reading, analysing and synthesising the current scientific literature. Understanding the latest scientific findings is a prerequisite for going beyond the state of the art and thus conducting good research.
This course addresses this very first task of any scientific inquiry and is designed for students who want to strengthen their literature review writing skills and simultaneously deepen their knowledge about agroecology.
In the summer term 2024, students compose their literature reviews about one of the 10 elements agroecology - topics not related to these elements are not accepted this semester.
