Psychological Research Colloquium WT 2025/26
Recent and ongoing research in the fields of Educational Psychology and Empirical Educational Research will be presented and discussed in the research colloquium. In addition to scientists from the University of Augsburg, researchers from other research institutions will also report on their work. All colleagues, doctoral researchers and students are cordially invited.
For students, the course offers the opportunity to expand own knowledge and understanding of different
mono-, multi-, and interdisciplinary perspectives on phenomena that are covered by research on learning and instruction. Furthermore, students can develop an overview over the state of research on a set of crucial topics from research on learning and instruction.
Sessions are usually held on Thursdays, 11:45 – 13:15, in Room 2108/D (with some exceptions, see below).
There is also the possibility to participate by ZOOM—however, we would encourage the auditory to attend the presentations in person in order to allow for a lively discussion. ZOOM link:
