Wintersemester 2025/26 (Winter Term 2025/26)

The Center Colloquium takes place several times a semester and is a regular meeting point for the CCS staff. However, the Center Colloquium welcomes not only faculty members but also students enrolled in the CCS' Master's degree programmes and interested colleagues from the university.

Typically, each session includes two lectures in English, each lasting 15-20 minutes, followed by a discussion. The colloquium takes place on four Mondays during the term from 12:00-14:00 s.t. in room +2/0140 at Ketzerbach 63, which is the meeting room of the Dean's Office in Department 03.

This winter term, the colloquium is organised by Pia Falschebner, Johanna Kocks and Miquel Pellicer.
