Product Description The process of doing an academic work, whether a mini-project, diploma thesis, master's thesis or PhD thesis, requires systematic knowledge and skills in order to answer the following questions: "How do I find a topic?", "How do I obtain funding money?", "How do I write a project proposal?", "How is the organisatoric workflow?", "How do I search Literature systematically?", "Why should I read patents?", "How can I organize my references?", "Why English as a working language?", "What is the formal structure of a thesis like?", What is the classical hypothetic-deductive research process?", Which research methods could I use?", "How will my posters, my presentations and my written work be graded?", "How do I contribute to a conference?", "How do I contribute to an archival Journal?". These questions are discussed on the basis of the subjects Engineering (Computer Science/Informatics) and Natural Sciences (Psychology) and Business (Software Engineering/Business), which can be bridged by the subject "Human-Computer Interaction and Usability Engineering (HCI&UE). Since science is trans-cultural, inter-subjective and reproductive; these fundamentals can be further applied to almost any subject.
