How to develop a strategic plan for funding your research Content and aim of the workshop Tuesday, 24.10.2017 09:00 16:30 This workshop explores the concept of strategy in the research context. Having a clear idea of your research direction facilitates aligning even small projects to larger goals, making individual proposals more compelling. It will also help to avoid the trap of letting funding dictate your research focus which leads to a fragmented track record. The goal of the workshop is to provide guidance on how to approach the development of a strategic funding plan in the individual research setting. Participants will learn how to apply key elements of strategy to develop their research agenda, identify a portfolio of funding opportunities to be pursued in the coming years and manage the grant life cycle systematically to build the resources and capabilities necessary to deliver long-term sustainable research. This workshop is designed for postdoctoral researchers who intend to consolidate their research career. presenter Dr. Thomas Koch, offers expert training and consultancy services for research management in international higher education. Since 2008 he has also been working as an independent expert and consultant, e.g. for the European Commission, the European University Association and the Helmholtz Association.

Content and Aim of the Creating Value from Knowledge Wednesday, 08.11.2017, 9:00-16:30 The workshop aims to give an understanding of what it means to translate knowledge, or ideas, into something that creates wealth - in other words innovation. An important outcome of the workshop will be the participants ability to be able to relate to how business views knowledge. The aim is to challenge the participants thinking and perceptions of innovation to help them understand what it takes to exploit knowledge, and why support functions like technology transfer offices exist in universities to help this process. The workshop aims to be very practical and interactive in nature, giving participants skills and understanding that they themselves can apply rather than business theory, though current business approaches to innovation will be discussed. Particularly for early-stage researchers, e.g. PhD candidates or post docs. Also relevant for those who have little experience of business thinking. Presenter Monica Schofield, CEng FIET, Director International Cooperation and EU Office at Tutech.
