Students are able to assess the results of the project carried out in a technically sound and comprehensible manner.

Students will be able to apply the methods and techniques of information science relevant to their research project to the research problem under consideration and the research questions to be answered.

Students are able to independently collect research results and interpret them against the background of the research questions and the current state of research.

Students can prepare research questions and results for peer reviews and justify them to other interested parties. They are able to develop the basis for decision-making in evaluation situations and to make and document well-founded decisions for the respective research question.

Students are able to assess research questions and the selection of suitable methods from different professional perspectives.
