Staff retreat 2012

Prof. Wörn and the staff of the IPR went to their annual staff retreat from 15th – 20th of March. This year’s location was Malta. The doctoral candidates had the possibility to present their research work in a speech with a subsequent discussion and talk about it with the group. In one-in-one interviews with the head of the institute the topics were deepened and their individual plan on their way to graduation was discussed.
The sunny weather and the diversified social program including climbing, bicycle tours, a sightseeing tour and a trip to the neighbouring island Gozo, allowed for a relaxed atmosphere.
