Das Programm wird ergänzt durch consultation meetings (one-to-one meetings of a PhD student with a senior scientist to discuss the student’s PhD project).

Virtuelle Komponente

Die summer school beinhaltet auch eine zweiteilige virtuelle Komponente. Der erste Teil findet im Zeitraum 14 Tage vor dem Aufenthalt (d.h. im Zeitfenster 18.08. bis 29.08.2025) statt, die zweite (kurze) virtuelle Komponente (als Feedback und mit Berichten über die Lernerfahrungen) im Zeitraum 14 Tage nach dem Aufenthalt (d.h. im Zeitfenster 08. bis 19.09.2025).

Das Erasmus+ Programm sieht vor, dass die PhD-Studierenden 5 volle Tage anwesend sind, d.h. die Anreise findet am Sonntag (31.08.2025) statt und die Abreise am Samstag (06.09.2025). Reisekosten und Unterkunft sowie Verpflegung werden durch Erasmus+ (über das International Office der Heimat-Uni), die Abteilung Sozialpsychologie sowie das International Office der Universität Ulm finanziert.

Erasmus+ Summer School at Ulm University (Germany)

In the first week of September 2025, we (i.e. the Department of Social Psychology in cooperation with the International Office of the University of Ulm) will organize a summer school as part of the Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme at the University of Ulm.
Scientists and PhD students from the partner universities Belgrade, Vienna and Limerick (Ireland) as well as from other international universities will come to Ulm.
The program (5 days, Mon. to Fri.) will include lectures and hands-on courses, which will be open to students of psychology at Ulm University in the Master's programs (the offer will also be open to PhD students and PostDocs at our institute).

The program will include courses on the following topics (and others):
- Multilevel modeling (lecture + hands-on sessions)
- Psychophysiological assessments (lecture + hands-on sessions)
- Deep learning (AI) models for psychological science (lecture + hands-on sessions)
- Ambulatory assessment (lecture + hands-on sessions)
- How to obtain representative data at no cost
+ numerous other lectures from the spectrum of psychological methods, personality psychology, social psychology, motivational psychology, emotion psychology, market & advertising psychology.

The program is complemented by consultation meetings (one-to-one meetings of a PhD student with a senior scientist to discuss the student's PhD project).

Virtual component

The summer school also includes a two-part virtual component. The first part will take place in the period 14 days before the stay (i.e. in the time window 18.08. to 29.08.2025), the second (short) virtual component (as feedback and with reports on the learning experiences) in the period 14 days after the stay (i.e. in the time window 08. to 19.09.2025).

Description of the virtual component
The virtual component of the BIP will focus on the doctoral projects of the participating doctoral students. Specifically, students will be involved in an exchange in which each student will present their doctoral project and receive feedback from the group of doctoral students as well as from two or three experienced researchers in Zoom meetings that will take place before the actual meeting at Ulm University. After the actual meeting, an exchange takes place in which each student reports on their experiences during the meeting and the development of their doctoral project; two or three experienced academics provide feedback in the respective Zoom meetings.

The Erasmus+ program requires PhD students to be present for 5 full days, i.e. arrival on Sunday (31.08.2025) and departure on Saturday (06.09.2025). Travel costs, accommodation and meals are financed by Erasmus+ (via the International Office of the home university), the Department of Social Psychology and the International Office of Ulm University.

In order to participate, a Learning Agreement must be concluded (in consultation with the International Office of the home university).
