Interchange within a research community happens - slowly and indirectly - via publications and - fast and directly - in symposiums, conferences and workshops. Such meetings are meant for establishing new contacts and getting new ideas for one's own research work.
The doctoral students in PEER are encouraged to present and discuss their own research work also in front of a larger auditorium and/or outside of their own university. Oral presentations are validated with 2 credit points, because of higher demands with regard to the presentation, poster presentations are validated with 1 credit point. The participation in conferences is not obligatory, at most 3 oral and 6 poster presentations are creditable.
