🎓 PhD-Talk with Lennart Schürmann 🗣️

What was your greatest experience during your #PhD? What were the most challenging moments? What is your advice for people who are interested in an PhD? Lennart Schürmann provides insights into his #PhDjourney at Fraunhofer UMSICHT. He has been working on his #dissertation in our Energy Systems department since April 2020. His focus is on modeling and optimizing energy systems.

Anyone still around from two years ago when I occasionally posted about the start of my #PhDjourney and its progress?

Update: I now have a (real) outline for my dissertation! I used the #Canvas in #Obsidian to visualize it. Very useful (and a free alternative to #Scrintal!)

It feels a little unreal, but it seems like there's actually a book coming out of this. 🤯

Took some valuable advice on organizing the whole thing from these two books:
1. The PhD Writing Handbook (very concise and straight to the point, great checklists) bloomsbury.com/us/phd-writing-
2. Authoring a PhD (sometimes a bit paternalistic to me, but still very useful)
link.springer.com/book/10.1007

Now I have to start structuring the chapters. I hope to have three chapters drafted by the end of the summer. And one chapter ready for publication in an edited volume by September ... wooo, this is exciting (and, of course, intimidating)!
