10th Conference for Student Research from June 17 to 18, 2025

The University of Oldenburg cordially invites Bachelor's and Master's students from all departments and universities in Germany to present their innovative and forward-looking research results! Under the motto Together Towards the Future - Discovering New Horizons , we would like to create an interdisciplinary forum that encourages students to share and discuss their research across disciplines in the form of a presentation or poster presentation.

In our anniversary year, the focus is on the perspectives of tomorrow. We want to know: How can the results of your research shape the future? What new horizons are opening up through interdisciplinary approaches and innovative ideas? The conference offers a space to discuss precisely these questions - from all angles.

Let's discover new horizons together and look to the future!

We look forward to your ideas and exciting research contributions.

Questions about the abstract

Who can submit an entry for StuFo 2025?

All students (Bachelor, Master, State Examination, Diplom) from all German universities can submit an entry for StuFo 2025.

What kind of entries can be submitted?

  • Preliminary results and (not yet) completed research projects can be submitted.
  • Submitted work can originate from different contexts, e.g. from courses, final theses (e.g. Bachelor's or Master's theses) or other student initiatives
  • Presentation (approx. 10 minutes in German or English plus 5 minutes discussion) or poster (German or English, PDF format A0, portrait, presentation in the poster session)

Presentation or poster?

A presentation is a research paper that summarizes the results and is presented orally. It is often accompanied by slides (e.g. PowerPoint) or other visual aids. The StuFo 2025 presentation panels comprise approx. 4 individual presentations, each lasting approx. 10 minutes and followed by a 5-minute Q&A session.

A research poster is a visual presentation that provides an overview or summary of your research for the audience to view at their leisure. At StuFo 2025, poster presenters are expected to be present with their posters in their assigned poster session to talk to the audience about their research and answer their questions. However, all posters should also effectively communicate the research as a stand-alone piece.

How can the entry be submitted?

  • Please fill out the following form: Abstract submission form
  • Save the form in PDF format under "Short title+surname.pdf" and send it by e-mail to forschen-at-studium@uol.de
  • The abstract can be submitted in German or English
  • Abstract requirements: max. 2500 characters including spaces, font: Nunito Sans Light or Arial, size 11, line spacing 1.5
  • The deadline for the submission of contributions is February 16, 2025

What do I have to consider when writing my abstract?

Please submit an abstract (max. 2,500 characters, including spaces) of your research in German or English containing the following points:

  • Title of the work
  • Research question or objective
  • Methodological approach, theoretical framework, material studied (e.g. literature, existing survey data, scientific samples)
  • Most important results

The StuFo is an interdisciplinary, nationwide conference. This means that the audience for your presentation will be from a wide range of disciplines and backgrounds - so they may not be familiar with subject-specific terminology or particular contexts. Your task is to write a summary that is accessible and interesting to a non-specialist audience.

The following questions can help you when writing your abstract:

  • Why did you research this topic? What was the reason for your project or the gap you wanted to fill?
  • What did you find out?
  • What is the significance of your findings and why should a non-expert audience be interested?
  • What is the future of your research or this field of study?

By when do I have to submit my entry?

The deadline for abstract submission is February 16, 2025!
 

Send your abstract by e-mail to forschen-at-studium@uol.de.
