Aim
Managing scientific projects as well as project proposals and developing them towards successful science is a common task for scientists as well as practitioner. In this course different approaches will be introduced and discussed.
Content
Research does mean much more than identifying crucial research question, finding appropriate data, developing algorithms and deriving new findings. While this course will contain all mentioned issues it will beyond highlight the challenges for raising money for research, writing proposals, building up networks, writing papers and doing presentations. All topics will be introduced by the examples of currently running research projects.

A First Get-Together with the New EAGLE Generation 🦅
A new EAGLE generation means new faces, new ideas, and the start of another journey in Earth Observation. And what better way to kick things off than with a relaxed evening at the pub? Our first social event brought together the new students, older EAGLE generations,...
Welcome, new EAGLEs!
The newest group of EAGLE students arrived in Würzburg! They come from different countries, with different backgrounds and different skills, and that’s exactly what makes this program special. Remote sensing is a big field, and it gets better when people look at it...
EAGLE student Jolien Grafe spent her internship in Kruger National Park
Jolien spent her internship in Kruger National Park in South Africa, working together with SANParks. She was part of an ongoing DFG project here at EORC that looks at how fire and drought shape savanna ecosystems. The project is led by Mirjana Bevanda and Tobias...
Night shifts with the black-footed cat: Jolien Grafe’s internship in Benfontein
Most remote sensing work happens in the daylight, at a desk or in a field with a drone. Jolien Grafe, one of our EAGLE M.Sc. students, spent a good part of her internship doing the opposite: sitting on a hill at dusk, listening for a beeping signal from a very small,...
