Students are involved in ongoing research projects in the individual work areas via seminars and workshops. The research internship represents a training concept closely related to research practice in the teaching of (mostly) quantitative methodological knowledge, whereby a laboratory is used for the administration and implementation of web-based surveys and computer-aided telephone surveys (CATI laboratory). Teaching is exceptionally interdisciplinary and multi-paradigmatic.
