GPSD 2016 is already the 12th conference in a Holger Dette (Bochum) series that was initiated in 1993 in Marburg. Since then, the GPSD has become Peter Eichelsbacher (Bochum, Chair) one of the major conferences in the area of Probability Theory and Mathemati- Vicky Fasen (Karlsruhe) cal Statistics in Europe. This year, we expect 550 participants, 360 talks, and 30 Hajo Holzmann (Marburg) poster presentations, covering a wide spectrum of topics ranging from stoch- Christof Külske (Bochum) astic analysis to applications of probability and statistics in science and industry. Angelika Rohde (Bochum) The Ruhr-University Bochum, host of GPSD 2016, is located in the heart of the Thorsten Schmidt (Freiburg) metropolitan Ruhr area. Once known for its coal mining and steel industry, the Evgeny Spodarev (Ulm) Ruhr area is now one of the most dynamic regions in Germany with 5 million residents, and with three major research oriented universities that together have over 100.000 students. Excellent research in probability and statistics is carried out at all three universities, with the Collaborative Research Center SFB LOCAL ORGANIZING COMMITTEE 823 and the Research Training Group RTG 2131 being the most visible centers Herold Dehling (Chair) for collaborative research and training of graduate students.

  • «Why History Education?»
    Digital Conference of the International Society for History Didactics (ISHD) 16-18 September 2021 «Why History Education?» Conference Organizers: Prof. Dr. Markus Furrer & Prof. Dr. Peter Gautschi, University of Teacher Education Lucerne, Institute of History Education and Memory Cultures, Switzerland Prof. Dr. Nadine Fink, University of Teacher Education, State of Vaud, Switzerland Pädagogische Hochschule Luzern Institut für Geschichtsdidaktik und Erinnerungskulturen Frohburgstrasse 3 CH -6002 Luzern Institut für Geschichtsdidaktik und Erinnerungskulturen - Institute und Forschungsgruppen - Forschung - phlu.ch INVITATION The question about the sense of history education has recently arisen vehemently. The mediation of history has to assert itself in the field of tension of power, economy and society. History teaching at schools has come under pressure in many places. On the one hand, it can be seen that, in different places, history teaching is instrumentalized for reinforcing nationalism. On the other hand, history as an independent school subject is, in many places, about to disappear from the curricula. Not least, the strong focusing of many school systems on usefulness raises questions as to what, in fact, the study of history might contribute to the understanding of the present and the functioning of society. This basic uncertainty concerning the aim and sense of history education stands in a strange contrast to the public sphere where a veritable boom of historical culture can be experienced. But, also there, the confidence in the orientating function of history for the present and future is small. Most strongly, all these questions emerge in particular when the history of one’ own country is conveyed. The conference thus opens up a wide field.

  • Deutscher Strafrechtslehrer
    Deutscher Strafrechtslehrer Statement by the undersigned German Professors of Criminal law on the "Green Paper of the Commission of the European Communities on the protection under criminal law of the financial interests of the European Communities and the creation of a European Public Prosecutor's Office" 1. The undersigned German professors of criminal law welcome the Commission's endeavours to prevent damage to the European Community's financial assets more effectively than previously. However, we would also draw attention to the fact that this is not in any way a new problem, and that subsidy fraud in a European context, for example, was dealt with as much as 30 years ago in the Tiedemann Study of subsidy crime, and has since been the subject of constant discussion. Thus, there is no need for an over-hasty, radical redefinition of the manner in which competence is shared between national and European regulations and institutions. 2. It therefore seems somewhat premature to provide detailed answers to the questions raised by the Green Paper - within the timeframe desired by the Commission these could only have been possible in a superficial and unscientific manner, without any discussion - which would give the impression that the Europeanization of criminal justice control mechanisms described in the Green Paper is the only way, with any promise of success, to eliminate the deficiencies in the European Community's protection of its financial assets. Regardless of the fact that the work of OLAF and EUROJUST must first be awaited and evaluated, and that the different drafts on substantive criminal law must be subjected to detailed critical examination and discussion, efforts towards control outside criminal law should also be intensified, including the removal of elements of the European system of subsidies which encourage criminal behaviour.

The Master's programme in Materials Science deepens the scientific expertise of your previous education. It aims at understanding material properties and interactions between materials with particular regard to application-oriented research in science and technology. At the University of Augsburg, we put a strong emphasis on natural sciences (rather than mechanical engineering) in materials science, aiming to provide students with an in-depth understanding of the chemical, physical, and functional properties of materials. The International Master's in Materials Science is a full-time programme intended to be completed in four semesters (120 ECTS). Building on experience from the Bachelor's level, knowledge of materials science is deepened and enhanced, finishing with the completion of a Master's thesis and an associated thesis defence.
