Of course, we also advise you on technical options for recording and managing your research results, using reference management programmes such as Zotero. We are also happy to help with questions about using AI in research, evaluating sources and copyright law!

In case you have inquiries regarding the offers of the Student Union for psychological and social assistance, you are also very right to address to us!

Logo of the Professorship Intercultural Communication Texting Coaching At the Texting Coaching, you may address your questions emerging during the elaboration of your course paper: How may I structure appropriately? How may I design introduction and conclusion in a way that works? How may I combine sentences in a manner that they explain clearly complex issues without seeming “convoluted”. Are my orthography and grammar correct? For those and all other questions around the topic “Texting”, Dr. Sylvia Jurchen and Dr. Burkhard Müller from the Center for Foreign Languages is at your disposal.
Logo of the Chemnitz University of Technology Student Service and Central Student Advisory Service The Central Student Advisory Service gives answers to questions regarding standard period of study, leave of absence or change of degree program and presents the range of degree programs of Chemnitz University of Technology, particularly our Master degree programs.

Among those are compensations for disadvantages, i.a. also regarding course papers, you are welcome to ask also for advice regarding prequirements and application.

Time for some snacks and drinks ... and above all:

Please write, write, write!
