How to participate in an X-Tutorial
The X-Tutorials are research tutorials initiated by students. Here, students from different disciplines conduct joint research on a topic. All students of the four partners of the Berlin University Alliance can participate.
Students receive credit points for their participation. The X-Tutorials are mostly offered as one-semester projects; for some projects, two-semester participation is also possible. Students can only take one X-Tutorial per semester and earn credit points here. The number of participants is limited to 15 per project.
